I had to bump this up, Fdd, your kids 16 now, or abouts, whats the status on that? Wondering as a parent, it won't be coming up for many years, my little girls only 4, but it will eventually. Might as well start doing my homework now.
lol... on time too.
he has never been in any trouble. he has no interest in even trying pot. he's grown up around it his whole life so the whole "taboo" side of it never even existed for him. as kids we often do things simply to defy authority. he didn't go thru any of that. his grades are good, his teachers love him, he's been playing the guitar for 3 years now, goes to the gym 5 days a week and mows the lawn once a week. he gets a little moody sometimes, but most teenagers do. all-in-all, i'm rather proud of him.I had to bump this up, Fdd, your kids 16 now, or abouts, whats the status on that?

Hell yea, sounds like you got lucky. I didn't start to defy. I was 11, and my mother was a psychopath. At that point I literally lost the will to eat. My godbrother/best friend at the time took me to a field with a 20 bag and a pipe, said "I didn't want to talk to you about this till you were older, but I really think I have something that could help you..." And it sure as hell did.he has never been in any trouble. he has no interest in even trying pot. he's grown up around it his whole life so the whole "taboo" side of it never even existed for him. as kids we often do things simply to defy authority. he didn't go thru any of that. his grades are good, his teachers love him, he's been playing the guitar for 3 years now, goes to the gym 5 days a week and mows the lawn once a week. he gets a little moody sometimes, but most teenagers do. all-in-all, i'm rather proud of him.
I agree. Most of us don't believe cops for shit because they've been lying to us since we can remember. I remember in 5th grade, the D.A.R.E. program, the pig tried to tell us, "I don't care what doctors say, MJ is chemically addictive, I've seen it." And right then, I remember thinking, "Wait, seriously, your a cop, and your telling me I'm supposed to take your word over a qualified medical professional on something like this?! Is this asshole for real?!" I had just started smoking pot the summer before this. Learned quickly pigs will lie out their ass, then have the goddamn gall to morally judge others like their fucking saints.Well in my opinion, when I was a kid and only got to know about it from hardcore stereotypes and thought it was as evil as coke or meth,
Once i grew up around the age of 15-18 i learned more bt it, saw how its done and thought its some unprocessed herb unlike cigarettes,
so i will tell them the the truth behind it while there maturing and also advice them to try it once there mature and treat it like any herbal medication. you tell one lie and you have to use another 1000 lies to cover it, so thats wrong, just out with the honest opinion.
