ok heres a question....

[BlueCat]

If you have kids do you run in the bathroom and hide to smoke your pot or do you just smoke it?
Or if you don't have kids, how are your parent/s with dope?

My sister and I both smoke . We both have kids. I have never hidden the fact that I started smoking pot again. I smoked it as a teen stopped and stopped to have kids and when I got sick started again. I never made it out to be a bad thing and was always truthful to them about it. I have 4 kids....they did not turn out massive drugheads or anything lol... they don't even drink.. my one son smokes regularly, the other 2 have tried it but did not really get into it... one never has he is a health/runner type....

My sister hides it and I find that silly but that is what she is comfortable with...

so how do you handle it?

In my opinion, even though i'm not a parent, you should try not to hide stuff from and lie to your kids. You shouldn't hide the fact that you smoke just as you shouldn't lie about sex and other subjects that are considered 'inappropriate' for young kids. Maybe it's best not to smoke in front of them, but don't hide the fact that you are smoking - if you do lie about smoking and lie about how you feel about smoking then the chances are that your child will find it awkward and uncomfortable talking to you about smoking when the time comes. Maybe you could let them know that smoking isn't a bad thing, but that they can't do it until they're old enough just like they can't have cigarettes or alcohol until they're old enough. That way they'll grow up thinking that smoking isn't as taboo and unmentionable as most people think, and hopefully you'll find that they'll listen to you more when you finally talk to them about smoking because you have their trust due to your honesty. I dunno, I might be wrong - like I said I don't have kids, but that's the way I see it.. then again, I am pretty high.

My mom makes me smoke on the porch. I live right across from the fire station. I bet they watch me take bong rips :-/

i wouldnt tell my kids until i felt they were ready to handle the truth, although im sure they would figure it out for themselves. my dad is fine(just smoked with him the first time on sunday), but my mom isnt.

[givemesomeweed]

My mom is fine with it we talk openly about weed all the time, but my dad wouldnt want me doin it.

If the kido is to young dont tell him anything it's none of his/her buisness and he/she will accept it (cause there kids woohoo!!). but once they start to understand them retarded anti-marijuana commercials I think it's important to step in and let them know whats up for real. I think whenever "when" they are mature enough you can explain what was once none of there bees-wax.

You dont want the kids telling your teachers and friends your parents smoke pot. It being illegal and all. never know kids are kids

my dad lets me smoke but as long as i dont do nothing else but smoke hes ok with it like i cant do pills or drink or do any acid shit like that he still has some rules

My dad has always been honest about anything. He never hid any facts from me, but he did reserve them until I was old enough to be curious. For example, he never waited till I was 12 or 13 to give me "the talk," he just told me the facts when I was much younger and asked where babies come from. As a result, such things were never in any different perspective than anything else.

Ditto weed. My mom is very irrational about weed, though, and never liked the fact that my dad smokes. When he caught me smoking he only helped me hide it from my mom and made me promise not to do it in any circumstances where I would get caught (boxing the bathroom, at school, etc). He sees nothing wrong with it, and told me he'd rather I was spending $150 every week on an ounce of weed than less money every week at a bar.

I haven't told him that I've tripped or taken any other drugs because it's not something he'd want to hear. I will be open about it when I'm in college, and he'll see it as more acceptable for me to be dropping acid or something.
