Tripping with parent/s?

After trying to engineer the correct circumstances for literally years, I recently got stoned with my dad and sister. We all sat and laughed together and exchanged stories, and in particular heard some great old stories from my dad's acid-dropping hippy period during the 60s and 70s. I would love to trip with him but not sure if it will ever happen. My sister suggested we take him to Glastonbury Festival one year - perhaps that will be the time...
 
One day my friend and I dropped acid and hung around with my parents for the majority of the afternoon, with them sober. It was a really strange experience, that I don't regret at all.

I tend to commonly take low doses of psychedelics around my parents, as they know the substances I partake in, and although they don't agree with those choices they love me anyway. I guess I don't feel like getting caught high on mushrooms in my house would exactly be that big a deal considering I have an LSD molecule hanging on my wall in my room... The jig is up so to speak.
 
On a different note, , however last one time I went to nz the day before a large Auckland music festival and in the day prior to it and the days immediately after, as well as during it of course, recklessly consumed virtually every nefarious chemical that we could obtain, and my mates over there are no slouches in the obtaining department.
My parents are very straight laced professionals who believe that the government knows best and drugs are surplus to societies requirements.
I arrived in Auckland Thursday night, if I slept between then and Sunday when I saw them, it would have been a twitching convulsive g- induced coma, and so I was a bit apprehensive to arrive on their doorstep.
However my fears were allayed when my Mum gives me a big hug and remarks how healthy I am looking. I casually remark, 'well what do you expect when you live a lifestyle as healthy as I do? '
 
I have smoked weed a couple of times with my mother and have talked to her a lot about my druguse. Especially psychedelics, dissociatives and empathogens.

I know for a fact that she wants to try ketamine and preferably have my as a tripsitter, someday anyway.
My mother have had a lot of mental problems, but I think she would benefit a lot from psychedelics.

One of my friends have smoked DMT with his mother :) And she isn't a hippie or anything, just plain "normal" as I understand(haven't met her).
While it was a weird experience for her, she would like to try it again.
 
My mother is a hippy who grew up in the 60's and has an aversion to LSD and mushrooms. I never found out how, but she knew exactly what my mushrooms were when she visited.

I've gotten stoned with her but she's one person I'd love to trip with, but it'll never happen :(
 
Me and my mum talk a lot about my drug use (like any good parent should) and in light of how it's helping me, she's slowly but surely expressing a desire to try it as well. Back when I was 15 we smoked some weed, but apart from getting a little tipsy once in a blue moon, she's never done a psychoactive. I'm sure she'll be alright though
 
Never have and never would trip with my parents...God- just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy.

However I have tripped with both my best friends father- my best friend was there (obviously), that was a bit fuck up actually. It was Christmas and I'm holding this 'orphans Christmas' for everyone who didn't have family or whatever to go to, so obviously there was a lot of drug use, eating etc. I was on heroin, ketamine and ethylphenidate as well as stoned as hell, having a good time then R, my best friend, turns up at about 4pm with his father. I notice in a second that they're fucked up and he tells me they story- they're at this bar and as they're leaving R finds ~350mg of MDMA in a baggie on the ground in the toilets. So him and his father, logically enough, decide to split it. Luckily enough it was MD and they were both rolling their balls off. It was pretty funny but also kinda weird, babysitting my gooned as best friends father while I'm smacked off my face.

I also tripped with my ex-gfs parents, both of them (they're divorced), separately. The one with the mother was weird as hell, she took acid with a friend of hers- they were punks in London in the '70s (lived across the street from Sid Vicious' heroin dealer- he once threw up green bile in their kitchen). As it happens I was over with my (then) gf for dinner- she had forgotten about this and when we arrived she was cackling away with her friend at the cat playing with its cat biscuits. When they started getting drunk we decided to cut our loses and eat a bunch of shrooms I had. Definitely the strangest trip I've ever had. Her Mum's friend was real cool, but really crazy.

We also took shrooms with her father- or more correctly, her father took shrooms with us at her birthday one year. That was cool- he was an old dutch hippie, he had heaps of cool stories about general weirdness back in the day. Like his flatmate going on an armed commando raid to abduct a friend of theirs back from a cult in the '70s, about a month after the place got raided and a small arsenal of weapons were seized or about living in Turkey and Afghanistan in the early-mid '70s. That was actually cool as fuck, a really cool group trip- about 15 people took shrooms and we all were on the same vibe, we sat around a big bonfire and had a BBQ talked shit and smoked tons of weed.
 
I always wanted to give some LSD to my father but he was never willing.

He was an old hippy and used to use a lot of psychedelics in the 60's and 70's. We used to smoke weed together all the time but that is pretty much it. I think it would have been a fun time to take a low dose of something with him though, I just was never successful at talking him into it. I didn't really want to push the issue. He told me that he moved on from that stage of his life and I suppose I can understand that, maybe in another life.
 
I personally don't think you should be trying to convince anybody to do psychedelics, it should be something they gravitate towards on their own terms. Perhaps educating them of the potential benefits of psychedelic drugs, as well as the potential negatives, providing them enough information for them to say 'this is for me' or 'no, thank you'. Don't just teach them about the positives since that would be coercing the person to unknowingly jump into new waters, unaware that there might be sharks or something they fear in those waters.
 
Parents both tripped when they were younger, they have no desire to do so now. I wouldn't want to trip with them either to be honest with you.
 
I've tripped with my daughter & her BF at a festie a few years ago. However it wasn't like we were sitting around talking & whatnot, cuz we were checking out the bands & dancing our asses off. I've smoked herb with her a lot - she lives in California & grows. I'll be heading out to visit her in a month or so and I'm bringing some blotters, 2C-E, 4-AcO-DMT & MXE. It's gunna be fun!

I think it would have been great to trip with my dad, but it never happened back in the day, and now he's 86 and there's no way I'd dose him now.

Or they could go absolutely apeshit because all their information about drugs has come from sensationalistic media misinformation and blackmail you into going to some 'tough love' bootcamp/rehab. It happens- just look up Synanon or Straight Inc etc.

Not trying to be contrary or a downer, but there's a reason most drug users are very cagey about their use. There is just so much ignorance- you say 'shrooms' they'll hear 'injecting heroin into your eyeball'.

yeah, there's much worse things than saying no. My parents went apeshit.

Tread carefully...
 
Well, I think most people that really want to try it are past that age where they have that sort of influence or have a good understanding with their parents. Those that can't ask, never will. But if you ask as an adult and explain your reasons then there's a good chance they'll listen. Like I said, my mom has never done drugs and she is open to it.
