She begged me to keep it a secret and I know that she'll see no end to this if they found out, but I also don't think I should keep this from them. I get along well with both of my parents and little sister, although, she, on the other hand, doesn't like them at all and constantly tries to do whatever she pleases.
You should tell your parents ASAP. People who said no and seem irritated by you for simply asking the question are probably smoking marijuana themselves or have another addiction/pleasure they are clinging onto. The only reason…excuse they can come up with is “It’s none of your business” or “stay out of it” which is BS since it’s your sister we are talking about.
Hard drug or not, smoking marijuana can still be addicting and can cause damage like memory issues, disrupts brain development in minors, bronchitis, creates anxiety or paranoia with frequent use, and of course while she is high her judgment is impaired which can lead to devastating situations. Marijuana can have some health benefits, but it needs to happen in a medical setting not recreational setting. Not to mention the amount of money she’ll dump on that stuff. As for legal troubles, it would be far better for her if she is a minor vs being charged as an adult.
It may cause a rough patch for you, your sister, and parents for a while, but isn’t that better than saying nothing and having something happen? If you do decide to tell your parents please make sure your sister is away for awhile that way you can tell your parents in private AND give them time to react, process, and plan on how they will reach out to her. Also keep in mind she may lash out at first, but don’t take her words personally during the heat of the moment. Let things calm down and then have a heart to heart conversation with her.
s Well why do your parents need to know? If she was doing hard drugs like meth or something, then I could understand wanting to tell them. But if it’s just marijuana.. it’s harmless, you can’t die from it. I say keep your sisters secret, at least until she’s 18 anyway.
u How do u benefit from telling them apart from causing drama
