I see people smoking cigarettes in the car with their kids all the time. Some alcoholic parents let their teens drink. I have never sat in front of my kids and gotten stoned, I have however gotten drunk in front of them and that is much worse imo. My point is, I believe that it is a plant that God put here on this earth for us to use for our illnesses and that is what I teach my kids. When my kids are old enough I would much rather them use cannabis than cigarettes or alcohol. You cant really control what they do but you can control what they see, hear, and learn so if you drink smoke steal and curse that is what they will most likely percieve as ok to do. There are anomolies where a kid growing up in an abusive or alcoholic/drug home moves on to be something because they hate the life they grew up in but children are like sponges, they soak up what is around. Show your kids your love for the plant and let them know that it isnt bad like drugs are and they will be on your side.

same game has the same effect every time. no exceptions. basically you cant tell them that without hurting them.

its kinda like jumanji.

This new jumanji theory could change everything 645937

This is why I moved everything out of my house . The two kids I have living with me were 5 and 6 at the time and kept telling people about dads trees. Then a couple months ago I quit smoking to help me gain custody of my other two kids 6 and 8 year old who have been living wiyh my ex . This is tthe first time in about 25 years that I have passed drug tests. It's been rough on me but I'm really trying to do what's best for my children.

Random saliva tests. Judge says he doesn't care that I'm a med patient he told me he would much rather see me on oxy and zannies because they are at least real medicine. Fukin ridiculous. He gave me a nice long lecture on how marijuana is not medicine and how he thinks the med marijuana laws are a joke. Old judges in small towns suck.

Really liking this thread, my kid just turned 3 and not sure how to broach it. In CO so I really don't have any legal worries. The question of the tent has come up...just said it was a tent. Unfortunately that is not a good answer as he wanted to camp and/or play in it. He also asked about what that bright light is when i forgot to lock the basement gate and he followed me down, just had to say plants:)
Illegal states, do what you gotta do. I don't think that "family secrets" or anything like that is the way to go though. That's the shit molesters tell their kids. Alcohol doesn't get the same weirdness, my approach is to just treat weed like a normal thing that is for adults. Regarding it growing in the house, its just plants till they get old enough to know what it is or inquire. At that point, well, i think that is where just treating it like a normal thing for adult use comes in.

Lol i told a girl that had never smoked its pretty much the same as masturbating to pron. non of the girls ive been spending time with seem very into smoking over selling. the problem with selling is the price change is extreme so you go from not being able to pay bills to getting into places you cant afford to stay in after one bad run. the problem with smoking is you don't fight when you should and whennnnnn you stop smoking the person who is using you gets confused when you tell them they cant borrow money any longer or talk to you like that.

similar to if you were playing xbox the whole time you were suppose to teaching your kids shit. 3days of withdrawals is a long time and if something good happens for them during that time that you cant react positively to it creates emotional damage you cant fix. compairing it to alcohol or pills just slows you down from finding solutions.

It still cant be treated like alcohol because there are people that would rob or hurt your family to get their hands on it or money. If your kids go around telling people about it the wrong person could find out that you grow. Better to keep things like that in the family.

Well per the poor-nography shows about moonshiners, they got the same issues:)

If you are following legal guidelines, there really isn't much of a reason for someone to rob you, much like if you are following the rules for homebrewing some beer. This is of course assuming you don't have 100lbs or whatever on hand:)

I will concede the point that just teaching them to keep their business private is a good life lesson to pass on in general though:) And well...it sort of flies in the face of what I said earlier, but I am going to be pretty damn sure my kid knows to never trust or talk with police. Just some rules of thumb I plan to pass along for getting by in this crazy world.

So bumping an old thread. Curious if anyone has any pointers for making like....parent friends? No one I know has kids and they are all pretty wild and crazy still. The other end of the spectrum is there are the parents of the kids at my kids school, and well, for the most part we don't really have much in common. Lots of crazy trophy wives and executive dads...kinda want to offer both sides some dabs or something as they seem miserable. Where is the happy medium and how do you meet people? Talked to some random dude with braids that was riding a skateboard around with his kid at the park, was at a total loss regarding how to be like "hey dude, umm, want to go to the zoo....?"

ps. if anyone here rides a jamaican flag themed longboard with their kid and talked kids skateboards/pads last week...want to go to the zoo?

There is one cool seeming parent at my kids school, think I am just going to have to break the ice and be awkward as shit and ask a man if he is down for a playdate.

Yeah I don't think I would do that.....but....If your kids or kid...has friends at school you can always have them have play dates and then you get to know the parents because depending on the age parents don't usually just say " yeah I'll drop off my 6 year old and pick them up in a few hours"....so there is always that....also take the kids to the park and talk to parents while you are there.....just try not to be a creep ........I've met lots of people through my children...including hanging with there teachers and whatnot

Sure man, I will go to the zoo with you. Meet me behind 7/11 at 1 am, come alone, knock on the back of the windowless white van twice and climb in.

Seriously tho, I would say a cannabis friendly church or community youth center or YMCA would all be good places to start.

^^THIS^^ I have met all my kids friends parents, well that is when she was still a kid now she is all grown up into a nice mature cola ;)
I never had much interest in other parents, but if I were you I would bring a soccer ball / foot ball / whatever kind of ball you like and if there are some people there you want to meet make some small talk and invite them to play. I absolutely under no circumstances would ever offer another parent any weed!!! It would be very awkward.

Lol...honestly that's what it feels like. It's just weird. I am not the most social dude so it is just awkward. Will 100% put it as my issue, it is really hard to like people for me.

Edit: can't get down with any of those organizations though...good recommendation, just not my scene. His teachers actually do seem rather cool and I could see hanging out with them, just old hippie ladies.

Edit 2: dear god, no way am I willing to have a kid around without their parent. Just no idea how to translate friendly park parents into real ones.
