if i have kids i'll let them be kids. i'll let them wreck their bikes, get into fights over backyard football. get into trouble...fuck just let them be kids. hopefully i can instill enough down home farm logic into them that they'll make the right decisions.

i wouldnt be happy if my kids were getting high at the same age that i was,, but i know from expirience that you can tell them not to smoke all you want and if they want too, they will.

when they're old enough to be responsible.... can't set an age.... for some it may not come til after 18, for some it may come before 13.. (although highly unlikely) anything 'strong' i won't endorse, and if found in my house i will flip out.... however, once he's out of my house, i will not approve, but it's stupid to think you can control them even shortly before that point, much less afterwards.

I'd want to shout them their first session :) I wouldn't mind them starting as early as I did, mainly because I know that they'll do it regardless of what I tell them. I enjoy smoking up so I don't see why my kid can't! ;)

My daughter is 15 and I just accidently found 3 joints in her room (INSERT PARENTAL SHOCK HERE). I've never openly gotten high in front of my kids but they have seen me stoned before so I guess I shoudlnt be shocked. I always knew the day was coming....I just didn't expect it so soon. I let her keep the joints and just had a talk with her about the good AND bad experiences I've had. My parents were pretty laid back so I told her that I wont be to uptight about a little weed and if she ever gets in a situation she cant handle dont be aftraid to call us. I told her both of me and her dad have gotten away with a lot of shit so she shouldnt think she can get much past us. Just be honsest with us and we'll be cool.

Whenever they want..they know I wont be mad at them if they do..but they have absolutely no interest in smoking weed..and they are 14 and 11...honestly they dont have the time for it either..always keep your kids involved in something positive..

I will make it clear that the more he fulfills his responsibilities (good grades, get into a good college) the more he can do.
If he wants to smoke in HS, but still gets good grades, then it's fine.
I'll set things like. If you get only A's and B's this quarter, then you can get your license by the time you are 16. If you get 2100 on your SATs we'll go buy a car for you, etc.
It'll be like he has to earn his stuff. If he does everything good, I'll be the awsome parent who lets him do anything.
I'll be like, "I'm going away for the weekend. You can do whatever you want in the house as long as everything is the way it was by the time I get back."
I'll really emphasize that he be responsible when it counts.
I probably won't encourage him smoking. But when I catch him I'll be like, "Can you smoke me out?" After that I'll tell him it's ok, but no hardcore drugs at all.

Ya just think of all the free weed u could get! LOL!

When they are mature enough to smoke weed and still be productive.....I wouldn't care but if they are smoking it when they SHOULD be playing hide and seek.....they will want to stay clear of me!!!
when and what you will let your child do
I don't think I will put an age limit on it but if they wan't to use it ever I will let them as long as they research it as much as they can. As for drinking I guess I would pick them up if they wdre to drunk but at the same time I would always tell them not to drink as its not good for you at all.

good post hun!
i think that when my son is old enough to start realising that mummy smoke big fags, then ill stop doing it, but when he is older and if he choose to smoke, get stoned, drink, or take drugs then i will explain the bad effects it had on me as a child, and explain to him that if he is going to do it, it must be in the house, where i can check on him and help him if he needs, dont get me wrong ill make sure he knows its bad, and ill make sure he knows im cross with him, but intill that day comes, he wont know a thing about what me and my husband had done as youngins.
when and what you will let your child do
it should be their choice, you just have to explain the bad and good of everything
its their minds and bodys and they will do what they want period

I'd much rather see my daughter smoking weed than drinking. I've rarely seen girls get taken advantage of after smoking a bone but I've seen plenty do shit after 3 beers that they never would do sober. I know this is veering a little from the topic (don't expect much more from a stoner!) but I guess I wouldn't be very upset if I found out she was smoking.

:jointsmile:I wouldn't mind If my kid smoked pot with me or his friends as long as he isn't doing any drinking or doing anything Drug that is deadly!!
But I would still Want him to call me if he's drunk no Qs asked!!!:thumbsup::hippy:

yeah, I'd rather my kids were smoking weed instead of drinking or popping pills. or worse.

I don't think this is an age issue, but, far more of a maturity issue.
I have a teenager and I would contest to his smoking at this point because he isn't responsible enough to remember garbage day, or pet feeding, without reminders and it's just not time for him to experiment like that yet.
Other kids, same age, same interests, I can see where it would be OK.
It's not as though my kid's a tard or anything, but he's simply flighty by nature and still kind of a puppy with his energy and attention levels. Not long ago I picked him up from school (where a uniform is required) and he was wearing gym shorts instead of the usual pants. I asked him where the pants were; he did not know. The boy lost his pants: he doesn't need to smoke just yet, seriously. (in his defense he was being picked up from track practice...but STILL!)
I have a good friend / neighbor who's son is the same age and our kids are good friends. She allows her son to smoke; both kids get along great, it's not a part of their friendship, they have so many other things to do and discuss. It just so happens that this other boy is the eldest of 3 other children and has a higher level of responsibility, and more of a need to chill out after babysitting and chauffeuring. My kid is an only child and the situation is just very different, although quite similar.
I read a response above describing that her particular children simply do not have time to get interested in herb yet, and my kids in that situation, too. In our home, pot is regarded with relaxation rather than partying, and, being a teenager, he'd rather play soccer than sit and relax with Mom and Dad.

Got 3 kids, and I don't want them smoking until they are out of high school. It's not because I think it will hurt them, well kind of.. I just want them to be as mature as possible when and if they decide to see what it is all about. Even in the early 20s they are still children, I know for all my maturity at that age I was still a stupid kid. I had a good head on my shoulders and understood a lot more about the grand design than others, but a still I look back and think... damn I was stupid.
I just don't want them to get into that whole "getting high" mentality because that's is how I was at some point, and it got me in a good deal of trouble. Also I think Marijuana should be given more respect than just a way to get high. My kids are smart little guys, and my 12 y/o is so impressive and is become a rather talented writer. One day I want these guys to learn about the importance of strong cognitive abilities, meditation and reasoning, some of which I speak to them about, thing is, I wouldn't trade all my knowledge and education for anything in the world, and I would like them to have the same without distractions.

I agree with you,
I started smoking pot when i was 13 witch is way too young, 16 is better,18 is best.
I did some dumb shit like drinking and driving and things like that, even tho my dad and mom always told me to call them instead of drinking and driving.
You can tell your kids they can call you but, no kids want there mommy and daddy to be picking them up at parties.
Ill still be telling my kids to call me to pick them up, if i catch them drinking and driving there going to be in deep shit.:thumbsup:
