Can Somebody on Probation Live With a Person Who Uses Medical Marijuana

My question involves criminal law for the state of: CA
My 16 year old boy has cancer and we have discussed him getting a doctor's recommendation for marijuana but I've been told I can't have any drugs in the house when I'm on probation. I need to know if I'm allowed to get him a medical recommendation or if it violates the terms of my probation.

You should have this discussion with your lawyer or your probation officer.

Common sense would advise against it. Your son smokes it, guess what - your house, your clothes smell like it.....

PandorasBox he has agreed to consume his medication outside on the patio and marijuana smell doesn't stay on clothes. Please either contribute to the thread or piss off.

Why don't you piss off? She made valid points. You created your own problems, taking it out on someone trying to help makes you look even more stupid than just being a criminal. Further being near the smoke could cause you to fail a drug test. Talk to your probation officer.

You need to speak to your probation officer - only they can answer this question.

Sure, if you wash them a few times.

Did you just expect people to say, "Yeah go right ahead, no problem?" There can be a problem, regardless of where he smokes it. Discuss options with your probation officer.

I see a violation in your future with that attitude.

As a probation officer, rest assured, marijuana smells your clothes. We smell it so often that you'd be better off refusing to shower in your home in order to try and mask the smell. You know good and well that you are trying to test the waters. I say that because you have the nerve to say if he smokes outside, you can't smell the weed. I really would have tried to work with you as an officer based off of your son's illness. However, based off the fact that you are premeditating how you can get away with it. I'd now suspect that you might indulge in a toke or two yourself.

I couldn't violate based off you smelling like weed. But, I will drop you so frequently, you'd be so well known in my facility, that you'd think that you were Norm from Cheers! And any trace of weed, I'd violate for it. Each and every time.
