How to tip my parents?

Hey guys, just finished my summer holidays, and it's back to school. Basically, i'm living with my parents, and i live in Athens (Greece). Now I'm sure some of you know that all drugs, and cultivation of cannabis have just been decriminalized due to lack capital in the prison system. Smoking weed, and growing it, are now treated as misconduct, and if weed is found on you, you have to prove its for personal use, if you do that, then you're allowed to keep toking.

I asked my parents if i could grow in my room before (When weed was illegal), and after many debates, squabbles, etc... the outcome was that i wasn't allowed, because it was illegal at the time. They also wanted proof that weed wasn't affecting my school work and academical side of life, so they said they would wait to see my exam results.

Now, 4 months later, I got my exam results, and i did very well (Straight a's and 2 b's), and every drug has been decriminalized. I want to ask my parents, but i don't know how to ask them, as well as this, i don't know how to give them enough reasons to let me grow...

Could you guys help me out a bit here? Please give me some suggestions thanks guys

15% is normal around here.

I would ask them again but if they decline then do as they wish, do not grow anyway. If you state your case (grades, chance of stopping grow if you slip) as informative and politely as possible, if they come back with a no you can try to perswade but don't step on their toes. Its hard for a parent to let their child do drugs, legal or not.

Hard to say, just ask again...

If you live in your parents house and they don't approve whether it's legal or not,

Maybe start looking for your own place...

I'd show them my grades, say I studied high, took the test high, and got high scores (damn youtube for not having that clip.) Then tell them how much $ you'd save growing it. If they still say no then well, respect it. A lot of parents would get pissed that you were smoking it at all so at least you have them cool about that. Or at least they would when I was your age lol.

If everyone is allowed to grow, isn't it really cheap to buy? Why do you want to grow anyway?

Regardless, Ask them again, and if they say no, flip out (cry if you can) Tell your parents you have been talking to this man on the internet and that they should understand you like he does. Tell them he asked you to move in and if they won't let you grow you are going to and they'll never see you again.

If you were a parent, would you be more worried about:

1) Your child running away forever and living with some guy who's probably a gay sex offender (or getting murdered)
2) Your child growing a small amount of weed legally in his room

If they still say no and ground you, just keep flipping out. Set shit on fire, punch holes in walls, get expelled -- your parents want you to do good, you need to completely self destruct. Act suicidal, if you threaten to shoot yourself, there first reaction isn't going to be to punish you. Keep it clear that this is why you are upset, but don't act like you are doing everything to just to get your way.

Thanks for all of your words, what exact reasons do you think i should give them for letting me grow?

One good reason is you don't want to support violent people and gangs. You don't want to endanger your self buying weed that you will get regardless if you grow or not

I had a dealer's friend steal my car after I bought weed. Last time I buy in person, online for me now

do you have money to invest in growing? my first indoor setup cost me about a thousand dollar (Canadian, in Greece i hear the economy is fucked up), personnaly i smoke 14g a week and with my 400w i was able to self supply myself if i didnt give away buds

you will find plenty of info here, some good, some bad

Dunno if I said or not what happend but the car ended up being towed. It was also a writeoff from the rear ender I took. So I went to go take my stuff out and my fucking sub (which was dead anyways but I could have sold the enclosure) and the 1000 watt amp was stolen. But my Alpine type-r speakers and alpine amp was still there which is WAY more expensive then the sub and amp. Paid 2000 in repairs, got rear ended, two days later stolen, then I got a parking ticket which was taken off, then it was a write off
