I live in a legal state. I have a large household. We have four kids under the age of 18 but they're not like super super young, they are between the ages 9 to 16. I cultivate indoors and outdoors. I have taught the children how to grow veggie gardens and ornamental flowers and how to propagate certain plants and vegetables. But I don't condone illegal use of cannabis. I do not condone children using cannabis products unless there's a medical card. By no means am I wanting to give my children cannabis to consume. But my curiosity is I would love to show them how to cultivate cannabis plants. Not giving them free range to frolic in the garden or to sit there and trim bud at harvest but to show them how to grow cannabis. Of course, they've sat there and watched me cultivate my cannabis indoors and outdoors. They do not have access to none of my plants whatsoever. I'm within the state law. But my curiosity is, does this community have any opinions on if you think it's appropriate to show kids how to cultivate? Or is that going over the line? It's a passion that I have and I know some of the kids have passions for growing things. And I don't want to teach them that marijuana is bad or there's a stigma behind it. I want them to understand it's just a plant and its medicine and it helps save some people's lives. But because of the way society can view, it sometimes makes me feel like a bad parent at times because I want to show them how to grow. I figured if I show them all my tricks on how to grow by the time they're of legal age to grow by themselves without any repercussions, they'd be very successful because they've helped me and watch me do it for years. What's your opinion?
