I originally posted this question in another thread but thought I would make a new thread to keep the other one on subject.

If you had a teenage son/daughter and thought they were using MDMA would you be angry/upset or would you ask to roll with them (if you were already secretly using) or would you be two faced and be angry and upset with them (but still rolled in secret anyway because its soo freakin awsome )

That's a good question. I can't really say though because I can see both sides of the coin. On one hand, I could inform them on how to use it responsibly and keep them safe if they choose to do so. And of course have those days where we could have those bonding moments and go out together and enjoy the experience. On the other hand, I'd probably have in the back of my mind that I gave my kids, or allowed them I should say, the chance to use drugs.

I can see myself feeling angry and disappointment in myself because I know for sure once they try it, they'll find whatever way they can to get a hold of some more and it won't be a "one time thing." Its natural anyway to feel protective of your kids when it comes to these sort of situations.

If anything, like I said above, I'll tell them all the information there is to know about ecstasy and to not abuse it more than once a month or so. Really if you look at it, it can be exactly like giving your kids an opiate to relieve a great pain they might have. Just because its prescribed doesn't mean it doesn't have the potential to be abused right? So in a way I could always look back to that and just say that I'm doing it the right way and it isn't going to affect them negatively. Plus I feel safe knowing it has a beneficial outcome rather than a typical hard drug like heroin where you could overdose on and mess up your life completely if abused.

lol...I'm kind of torn about this. I've used a lot of drugs with my father while I was a teenager, but he was not at all a good role model for use. If it was somebody responsible enough to teach the kid how to do it as safely as possible then that could potentially be beneficial. But heavy drug use between father/kid ends up being quite harmful.
 
I think if I suspected my children were using drugs (and I would know ;)) then I would mention it to them and find out exactly what they were doing etc.

If they asked me about my drug use I would be open and honest about it but I would neither encourage or discourage them on using.

I would want them to know as much about x drug and that they were being safe when using. As for rolling with them - I really dont know? I think it would depend on a lot of circumstances - I would like to think that we could roll together as adults.

So many parents go drinking with their children as this is deemed perfectly fine so why not rolling?
 
Hm..that's a bit of a tough question. Well, first, my basic rule is X is as far as I'll go with drugs. Not bagging on anyone who does it, but I would never even allow myself to try crack or acid or anything harder than X. I'll do weed, smoke cigs, and take X, but that's as far as it goes. I think I would want my children to all follow this. After their 18, they can do whatever the hell they want.

If I found out, and I'm sure I would, I would try to educate them about the negative effects, the "loss of magic," how often they should do it if they really want to do it. However...I don't think I would roll with my children. I dunno, that seems too far for me. I would want to make sure they're with people who will keep them safe while their rolling, make sure they don't get caught, and send them on their merry way.
 
if i had kids i wouldnt roll with them but if they were using x i'd make them buy off me so i could know what they were taking and how much

Smoking cigarettes is by far more damaging that LSD though - I personally would much rather my kids take the odd trip than smoking on a daily basis.
 
Depends how much i've changed in the next 15+ years. Right now though i'd let them roll at the home with a few friends maybe, hell of a lot safer than the stupid places we rolled when we had nowhere to go.

Doing it with them though...idk, some old guy cramping they style lol
 
As I never had kids it's hard to say, but believe I would have been protective. I wouldn't want to be a bad influence so would keep my own use private from them. I think it's more apprpriate to keep drug use away from them fullstop.
 
My eldest kid uses natural drugs occasionally, mostly weed and mushrooms; but I'd guess he will use mdma at some point. I'm sure he'll speak to me about it if he does, as he has about other stuff.
I'd get him a testing kit, inform him of pillsreports and talk to him about using safely. He already knows about Bluelight and Erowid.
Doubt if I'd drop with him as we go to different stuff, but got no issues in principal
 
I think I would try discourage it, and really emphasize the dangers and potential for abuse/addiction. I'd also try to be understanding and empathetic, to keep the lines of communication open.

Guess that makes me a hyprocrit, but I feel like as a parent, I'd want to represent the restraint side of the equation.
 
MDMA has become such a positive healing experience in my family and my own life, I would actually want my children to experience it once they were physically and emotionally ready for it. I'm more of the opinion that mdma is for people with some maturity to handle the experience so I'd restrict making it an option until at least high school, I think if I "caught" my kid, my biggest concern would nye testing their stuff, not getting arrested and making sure they space out their use.

i personally feel that teenagers are not physically and mentally developed enough to be consuming mdma. so if i found out my daughter was using mdma i would have to scold her and express my discontent with that. i would urge her to wait until adulthood to indulge in mdma. if i was using at that time i would not feel two faced at all i would not lie but i would be straight up. "this is for adults, your not an adult, i would highly appreciate it if you waited until adult hood to indulge in mdma/all drug use".
 
I think (wont know exactly until the situation arises :P) I would be OK, its a pretty safe drug, but I'd teach them to roll as safe as possible. Though I doubt I would roll with them.
 
Ive dosed my mom, gave her some BOMB molly pressies which she did not like, she got floored in 1 pill.

She knew i raged and asked me what i was doing like bearlove said above. She wanted to test our generations stuff and compare. She was blown away.
 
No, I don't think I'll ever take MDMA with my children. I'd smoke and drink with my theoretical kids, but doing drugs with heavy social stigmas attached to them with my children is a no no. Put simply, it's not worth the potential problems which could pop up. Besides, I'd want them to choose for themselves whether or not they'd be interested in trying MDMA - if they were over the age of 20, and asked me to do MDMA with them, I'd probably be down. On the otherhand though, if they asked me about drugs I'd try to give them as much of an unbiased response as possible, and if I knew they were using MDMA I wouldn't flip my shit but rather teach them the dangers of addiction and tell them to be safe.
 
see my father knows i roll. we have rolled together but we never consumed together (picks me up from party eyes rolling round on both of us, dad i love you. love you too son. can really feel the air, me too son... Fuck i love mdma, me too son..) turned out to be a good night!

my mother knows i take ecstasy but prefers to not know ive told her all about safer use etc, but my family has such a bad history with meth she puts mdma in the same catagory as meth :(

when i have kids, ill unerstand the potential for use with mdma, problem is, with mdma becoming more of an endangered substance whats gona take over from it (pipes/4mmmc or then what...) i love it, i understand both good and bad but with controlled use id love everyone that bags it to just try a moderate dose just once.
