Maybe she tried talking to him about it and he wasn't listening. Single moms will especially get such a response, I have seen it happen before. It was a cowardice move, but we don't know her son or the mom. So we really can't say shit about them.

Yeah he could be potentially screwed if she doesn't know that just simple possession disqualifies you for any kind of financial aid for college. Not sure how the underage crime file gets erased for things like that though.

I'm not exactly an expert on FAFSA but I thought you were only disqualified if being convicted after previously receiving federal aid. I mean I have a felony drug charge and i'm still eligible. If I remember right I thought the question asks if you have been convicted of something WHILE receiving financial aid; or something very similar to that. And yes my charge was after I turned 18.
Sorry I just feel like having drug charges when you are young is overemphasized in regards to getting college money. At least so long as you don't screw up in the middle of getting the money.

I got ya! I dont worry about it personally but my best friend was so worried he'd get caught for possession and didn't want to lose his availability of aid. He was the original one who told me about it anyways.
Glad you still have yours!

I can relate to this kid, when I was 16 my dad turned me into the police chief. Luckily the cop just flushed the weed and told me that I'm a good kid and that I just need to straighten my life out and weed is gonna ruin my life and had a long talk with me. If I was charged with something I would have never forgiven him, and still resent him today for doing that shit to me.
Fucking idiotic parents. Really.

I hope her son was an ******* and was arrogant and belligerent and thought no matter what he did, he couldn't get in trouble for having weed, even if he flashed it in front of a cops face and his mom had tried several times to stop him. If this was the situation, then he deserves to be screwed by the system.
However, if he was cautious, kind and a caring person and his mom just happened to find his stash and felt that turning him in to the police was "the right thing to do" then she was very foolish and the poor kid didn't deserve it, although, when your under 18 and living with your parent(s), you need to be responsible and follow the rules. Once your 18 and still living with your parents, if you don't do what they say, they can legally kick you out. Either way, having something illegal and living with your parent(s) which are not cool with it, is asking for trouble.
Having said that, I agree it would have been hilarious if she got pulled over and arrested for weed. Also, if cannabis was as legal as alcohol, it likely would have been the parent who got in trouble and it would have made it into a family issue, rather than the way it was handled. Unfortunately, the kid may turn into a legal alcoholic as a legal (when old enough), yet more harmful, alternative to cannabis.
Also, getting the law involved with people and drugs, is always a bad idea, unless you hate the person and are trying to ruin their life.

At least he wasn't growing mushrooms. I guess.
Fuck that sounds like my mother when she walked in the house and the pot brownies were burning in the stove. That was so bad. Being 15 was a lot more fun tho 
--------------------
Even now, if I see in my soul the citron-breasted fair one
Still gold-tinted, her face like our night stars,
Drawing unto her; her body beaten about the flame,
Wounded by the flaring spear of love,
My first of all by reason of her fresh years,
Then is my heart buried alive in snow.
The universe is transformation: life is opinion.

What a fucking cunt. I mean kicking the kid out, back handing him a few times are options that would be much more reasonable than reporting him to the police. That is just fucking low and shows she was obviously incapable of being a decent parent.

It just sucks so bad that the kid is so young and ignorant about the law and shit. If he played his cards right he could avoid any charge whatsoever! Or any police attention.
So what? His mom shows up to the station with Pot and suddenly its His  . Assuming he hadnt smoked that much if his system was clean he could pin it on his mom. Tell the police he was threatening to report her drug use because they had been fighting real bad. If he would deny everything (assuming there was nothing else left in his room) they would not have shit on him.

hungry? How many of us, having had the experience, under the influence
of the visionary drugs, of seeing all human beings as incarnations of God,
have gone down to the local hospital to give affection and a listening ear to
lonely patients who need somebody to talk to? How many of us regularly
visit a jail, to provide spiritual and emotional support to confused, damaged
people who have grown up unloved, uneducated and unguided by their
confused, damaged parents -Alexander Shulgin

What a fucking bitch. When I left home after visiting in January my mother found an empty bag that smelled like weed and said 'You're lucky she didn't tell the police'. This world is just so fucked up and it makes me so angry.

sounds like the mom was in possession of the drugs to me, not the kid.
arrest the bitch!
but no srsly, BTW he's a minor so he'll be fine on financial aid, still...
hey, who knows maybe the kid really needed a wake-up call. just because she turned him in for weed doesnt mean that's the only "bad" things he was doing.
personally, I don't think minors should smoke weed. She should have taken it like a responsible parent and possibly taken away privileges that enable his drug use (like cars, sleeping at others' houses)
but to turn him in to the po-po's!! Wowww

I wonder what would have happened if he had denied that the pot was ever his. It's his word against his mother's, right? And she was the only one in possession as far as the police know, right?

I served on a grand jury a few years back. It's done (at least around here), although typically they just charge everyone.
I imagine in a "mom said, son said" case they could easily print the scale or paraphernalia.
The cost is so cheap, there'd be no reason not to do it.
