nothing...it's just my time to live life without her beautiful influence, and healing. Learning to just be.
Mom smoking pot while she was pregnant with Cindy is exactly on what we blame our "well behaved, chill" 2 year old. (She surely didn't get it from either of us!) We talked to a midwife about it. Inhaling hot burning gasses is not good for either mom or baby...but it is less bad than mom not being able to eat due to morning sickness. We smoke around her. My pipe is "Daddy's binky". I don't want it to be some big mystery to her..."forbidden fruit", and all that. I'd worry about her talking to teachers, but we plan on home schooling. I plan on letting her smoke, for medicinal purposes, with parental supervision, when she reaches menarche. I'm not worried about her being able to make her own decisions about what to put into her body or brain. She's already getting to be a bit too good at that already. Probably end up rebelling and becoming some kind of Repiglican stock broker, anyway, or maybe a gutter punk.
how do you know your daughter will have medical problems? maybe cuz her mom smoked when pregnant? i don't think smoking cigs around kids is good either. or have them lying around in front of them. it's probably not good for them to see their parent's drinking either. shit, i guess you can't completely shelter them tho...
I would smoke around my kids, but my kids would grow up in world that is a far cry from that of 'normal' society, so it would be an incommensurable situation. I can not say whether it would have positive results for all parents, but I can say that I know it would be fine for me and my children. Personally, I do not want to have children, but I do plan on living with a large group that I can call 'family'. And hopefully there will be many children around me.
i think as long as you educate your children from the get go it will alright. if you're worried about what they will say, then call it "tobacco", atleast until your child is old enough to know that some things that happen around the house stay around the house. no i don't think it should hidden or secretive about smokeing around the kids. now as far as giving it to a child, not until puberty comes on, that's probably when they need it, cause yes it is medicine, it is "mind altering" cuz it mellows and calms the majority of folks who decide to do it. there's also people who just get paroniod/sick, i've met a few folks who are alergic to cannibis. bottom line is if we educate our children there is more room for growth, and if we just hide it and make it secretive, then we are teaching our kids to be just as sneaky as we are, and i don't know about you but i'm gonna want my kid to show me what it is before takeing anything someones gives to her or she buys. i think it's just safer if i can help on the journey that is awaiting.
i don't think i would ever expose weed to my kids until they know what it is and its effects and stuff. plus, little kids say anything.. they'd probably go to school telling their teachers their mom smokes funny stuff haha
I think instead of smoking weed during pregnancy, you should ingest it, so you can use smaller amounts and have less interference in the growing of a child. I think its ok to smoke around babies in an open space and maybe even toddlers. Once they get to school age, they should not be immersed in open smoking. try to keep it away from them but not become obsessive about it. In their pre-teens, have a talk with them about things that shouldnt and are allowed to be spoken aloud. give them information, the right kind and assuming you did a half-ass good job raising this child, they should have enough sense to understand. If they ever become curious, they can come to you instead of getting misinformation and being in danger. IMO.
I dont smoke anymore, but I have smoked a hanful of times in front of my son. Never again though. I think as long as your a good parent and actually spend time and talk with you children, hiding your herb smoking is not going to cause them to be sneaky. Most people I know with parents who smoked approached them about smoking because they knew the parents would listen to them and accept it. So really it comes down to having patience and being open minded as a parent, and has nothing at all to do with exposing your children to your intoxication.
pot is wonderful for menstrual pain. fuck eating 15 prescription strength Ibopurofen a day. smoke 4 bowls and youre set.
FOSHO! my booboo was prescribed 2400mg a day for the prior 2 days and her 3 day cycle. She weighs fucking 90 pounds. She has a mouse appetite normally. So I didn't agree with that...now i just buy her a big bag of weed every three weeks.
i want to be a father someday but there's a part of me that doesn't want to have children just because i don't want them to grow up in a world that's becoming as fucked up as this one...anyone else agree?
