My daughter has been actively involved in my growing. (She's five!) I find that she loves to watch the many phases and all the work involved. Although it's very hard to explain marijuana to a five year old, I have tried to be as open and honest as her age allows. I've explained what "drugs" are and I've told her the positives and negetives of marijuana and as much of its' history as she can swallow. My beliefs are that she is the future and there is nothing better in this world than children with open minds. Many people underestimate the intelligence of children but what I have gathered is that hiding things from children isn't a good way to get a good message out. She knows that my garden is "secret" and she knows why it has to be secret.
I really respect this, and wish my parents did this with me. Im really interested in how this turns out, of course I wont find out but i just wanted to say I agree with your philosophy on explaining what it is to her and the pros and cons and to say its a secret right now. This is beneficial on so many levels, It encourages her to think for herself in a way and opens up your relationship in a way with her that is totally open.
