Should I Stop Smoking Weed?

Question by Steve: should i stop smoking weed?
im 15 years old and i have smoked weed since i was about 12 when my best friend first introduced me to the drug. I have smoked on and off since then. I don’t smoke much, maybe twice every month. But something that has always scared me about smoking weed is that my parents have always said that i should never do drugs because both of my parents have a very addictive gene in them that runs in there family and they say that since they both have it, then there is no question that i have the same gene. However i have smoked for awhile now and felt no addiction what so ever, or “need” to smoke weed. The only times i usually smoke a joint is when im feeling really stressed out about something or if i just need to get something off my mind. But once in a while ill smoke every other day for like 2 weeks straight, then stop and go back to my only smoking twice a month routine. I don’t think weed has effected me much but sometimes after smoking i feel very strong temporary “withdrawal” affects that make me feel very angry for no reason and make me feel like i just don’t care about anything. I wouldn’t say that weed has affected my life that much really, i do pretty good in school (even thought i hate school and don’t care much about it) but i manage to get C-B’s in school, I have had a girlfriend for about a year now that hates when i smoke but i still do it behind her back. So basically my main question to you is, should i stop smoking weed? are my parents right that i have the same addictive gene as them? Or should i just not worry about it?

genes have nothing to do with adiction. i would say, if you want to smoke, smoke.
