Is there a possibility to sue your parents on the grounds of mental anguish if I now suffer from that and all these: depression, anxiety, insomnia, anger amnagement and probably more. My parents were marijuana addicts and subsequently all their children turned to be that way too... as well as alcoholics even though they didn't really drink. We got to hear stories of my mom on acid when were just in high school and we all ended up using that too. When they would run out of pot my mother would and still does cry hysterically and pick fights and wear dark sunglasses like sum1 had died... it is and was very pathetic. They used to send me off to high school with hundreds of dollars to score for them and I always felt it necessary to do so to keep th epeace and prevent my mother from crying. It hurt to watch her cry. So a lot of my friends ended up becoming drug dealers because I always had money. I ended up selling too just to keep the house from becoming "dry". I was the supplier for my entire family for 10 years and still am looked to get it even though I quit smoking when I saw the poison it was to this family. I am the youngest of three and am 30 years old now and still living with them because I find it hard to hold down a job despite being intelligent. I remember attending commnity college in 2002 and coming home from work and trying to go to class but she ran out of pot and was having one of her fits and I felt so bad I skipped class to "score" for her.. . this happened a few time that semester and I never caught back up because after I bought the pot dfor them they would give me some and of course I had to smoke it. My father just sat back and let it all happen. None of their children are successful and we all really don't like each other or get along. We would figh physically and mentally constantly and the only thing that would end it is giving us all pot... which we then all go onto our separate rooms and smoke up? My older brother is a raging alcoholic who got married and had a kid with the support of my parents despite my pleas that he mas mentally incapable of handling such a life... he just attacked his wife the other night while holding their son in a fit of drunken rage... after he told all of us he was going to do that just a month or so ago... and now my parents have bailed him out of jail (we've all been areested more than once) and let him move back into their house... I may be rambling but this whole family is just effin nuts and I don't feel I ever had a chance in life and it sucks. I heard my mom yell back at someone once that she smoked during all three pregnancies and her kids are fine! I thought at the time she meant cigarettes and now I think she meant cigarettes and pot... I was born 6 weeks early... I assume to escape from her polluted woom... and we all have mental problems... thats not fine. Ive thought about this for many years and this thing with them supporting my brother (after what I believe was pre-meditated attempted murder) just has me going nuts and I need a way to get away and try to have a normal life... im smart enough to hold down a job I just need to get away from the drama... and I have no major social issues like the other 2 brothers and my mother. I am just looking for a cushion. I know there homeowners insrance policy is worth like $250,000 or 350,000 and since all this "abuse" happened here it would be a good start. I only refrained from attempting this years ago because iwas afraid my mother would commit suicide (like her sister did and her mother tried to)... I just don't know anymore. I am upset at the moment and am not going back to check the grammar and punctuation on this... I believe most of my point has been made... im sure there are dozens of other horrible stories that I have stored away safe... like my middle brother used to chase me around the house with a knife for fun until I locked myself in the bathrrom and called for help... which I told my parents so they took him to a shrink and the shrink said it was my mothers fault... so that's the last time any of would get the help we needed because she couldn't take that it was her fault... that and he assaulted me for 5 bucks when I was in 8th grade because he needed mone for pot... let me know the possibilities... sincerely, screwed up in CT

Why not, are they rich so if you spend 40,000 in attorney and court fees, you could actually get money, winning is easy, collecting is hard

Although I really doubt you would win, of course you have the right to sue

Quite frankly you would be laughed out in my opinion. When you have a point of being an adult and still making bad decisions then you also accept the liabilities that come with it. If you think that pot is the cause then sue your dealer. Mental problems run in families and you may just be one of the statistics that are part of the human gene pool. I understand your situation but to sue for your childhood and possible DNA outcome just doesn't sound right. You can try.
