That'll be one of my biggest talking points with my son when he's old enough to have this discussion. Hopefully by that time many laws will have changed. Hopefully I won't be viewed as much of a hypocrite for telling him he can't break the law, while I'm upstairs in the library with the door locked and an incense burning to cover up telltale odors. Not to mention, I wasn't exactly an honor student in high school... we used to get blazed on the football field before damn near every class... and the apple rarely falls far from the tree.

Luckily, I've got a while before I have to worry about this little talk... but that definitely doesn't mean I'm not thinking about what I'll have to say.

Oh God, dunno why I haven't really thought of this until now, but I may have created a monster...
Mr. Clandestine Reviewed by Mr. Clandestine on . Parenting Teenagers - I'm Busted! I have always hidden my cannabis smoking from my kids for obvious legal reasons and because I don't want them smoking as adolescents as I did. I recently became too relaxed and smoked in our home and my step-son (17) has told his mom that he smelled marijuana a number of times (My wife of nearly two years is not happy with my cannabis use as I kept it hiddent from her - a post for another day). I'm busted and I am trying to figure out the best way to handle it: Never smoke in the house again; Rating: 5
