So is this a symptom of addiction, or just lack of discipline? I smoke plenty, but I know when and how to stop.

This is a test I did on myself to check if I'm addicted to sugar, so please take it in that context.
Reduce your intake by 50% for about a week. Do you see a craving developing in you that's affecting your day to day life? Such as fatigue (both physical and mental), lack of focus, interest etc.,? If the answer is yes then you are probably on the verge of getting addicted. I'm not a doctor but my guess is that next stage is the lack of awareness or the ability to know when to stop which is a clear sign of addiction.

I consider myself addicted to sugar, the good part is that only takes about 3 days of craving to be free of them. After that it's much much easier to keep away from it.

That’s great, but that doesn’t mean other people can’t have different experiences with pot.

Neglecting a child isn't something to take lightly, and it isn't something I could ever imagine doing. But sure, everyone is different so we'll give this guy a pass and attack a plant instead.
