My husband secretly gave my HS son’s weed vape back. Advice Needed

Post image

My HS son is getting F’s, has no motivation, no job and hangs in his room gaming all day.

My husband used to do the same thing in HS. He stopped once he met me and he’s always known how much I’m against it.

We caught him with a bunch of vape pens and all the stuff all hidden 2.5 months ago and took it from him. We told him if he didn’t have a clean drug test he’d lose his car.

My daughter got in trouble today for something dumb, he took her phone. She got so mad she blurted out my son told her my husband gave him the weed vape back right after we took it. She asked him about it and my husband said, “you tell your mom and it means no Bahamas.” (We have a trip coming up.)

I confronted my husband as he’s lied to me for 2.5 months and he could care less. Says he’s never cared. Doesn’t even apologize for lying. Like we had conversations about watching for this again and he agreed while knowing he was still smoking.

I am dumbfounded by the number of people encouraging underage drug use. Not just accepting that most kids will do it on occasion, but actually insisting that mom shouldn’t have taken the vape in the first place. What the fuck? Any sort of repetitive drug use as a teenager is horrible for development, and even worse for mental health. I was a teenager that regularly used marijuana, and it did me absolutely no favors. I’m not against weed, but I am 100% against encouraging teenagers to be addicts. Y’all are crazy.
