Will you still smoke weed if/when you have kids?

And if you already do have kids and still smoke, how do you go about it?

Personally, if I were to ever have kids and weed is still illegal wherever I'm living, I will probably stop smoking regularly. I'll still smoke on special occasions, but it would be reduced to maybe a few times a year. I would do this not because I don't want my kids to know I do drugs, but because I would not want to risk any sort of legal trouble if I'm responsible for another human being's life.

That being said, I would not stop my kids from smoking weed, and if I ever caught them doing it I would then tell them about my experience and make sure they know how to be smart about it. In fact, once they go off to college and are officially out of my care I would encourage them to smoke
 
I'm with you. I'd still smoke, but only on special occasions. If I had kids and they ended up smoking weed, I would only tell them they'd need to cut back if there grades start dropping or if they get in legal trouble. Once they move out though, I'd be down for smoking a spliff with my hypothetical kid :D
 
I pray weed will be legalized or at the very least decriminalized throughout the USA when I have kids. If this is the case, and the social stigma changes - I will probably smoke when I've got kids.

Same policy follows - I don't smoke unless I can do so responsibly.
 
If anyone is currently living this way, either with or without your kids knowledge, I'd be really interested to hear your story, especially if it's legal. That is, if you can talk about such a situation comfortably here
 
Yeah one of my friends family all smoke together regularly actually haha. His dads a bouncer and his mom is actually a MILF haha. But yeah he's a sophomore in high school and the whole family smokes each day even with his 8th grade brother. They even let him smoke before school because he's so experienced with it they're not even worried about it. I guess he said when he was a little kid he walked into his dads closet when his parents weren't home and he found 14 pounds of weed. No joke. His dad used to grow and sell. Actually a month ago I bought some sour crack off his dad when my friend wasn't home. But yeah, that's one story I had to share. My mom's never been high before but she said she would smoke with me when I'm 21 if it becomes legal. Since she goes out to bars with my sister sometimes...
 
I sure will, and I will be living in California by then so it's not a problem.

It's not that hard to be a drug user and take care of children, you just have to be extra-careful with your stuff and not leave it sitting about where children have access to it.

The illegality and negative social plays a big roll. I once read about a little girl that called the cops on her parents saying she is a DARE kid, when she found 2 oz of weed since that is what she was taught to do in school. Whats really disturbing is they gave her a DARE diploma and some other reward for sending parrents off to jail.

Even if things are still the same way I'll still do it but defently be alot more carefull and not do it around them and as much. Hopefully things will change by then so I'll not have to worry about that. Just like I am now; I'll never let it get in the way of my responcebilites.
 
I don't have any, but I can definitely see myself smoking a joint after putting the kids to bed once in a while :p
 
I think maybe a lil on weekends when i eventually have kids, but the habit will probably die out.... it seems to for a lot of parents i think.
 
In the future on special occasions/ weekends but i would keep it away from children until they were teenagers but my view may change if/when i actually have kids.
 
i smoke a few times a week, right in front of my kids. because it's not wrong. also, in alaska, it's not illegal. i don't see how it's any different than drinking a glass of wine at the dinner table with your kids.

i will grow my medicine again next spring, and i'll bet my little one will help me water the plants.
my grown kid smoked her first bowl with me. she was gonna do it somewhere, and i'd prefer that she's safe at home with quality buds.
 
I'm with you dude, there is nothing wrong with weed so why treat it like there is? Wouldn't let my kids smoke until highschool, wouldn't let them drink until they are of age or out of the house. All of this is contingent on grades and social behavior... I won't smoke in front of them or be blatant about it, but cannabis won't be a bad word I my house, that's for damn sure.

We need to teach our children the truth at home before they hear the lies out in the world. I doubt it will be legal where I live, but if we raise our children right then maybe they will take care of it.
 
If I ever have kids, while there young, I wouldn't smoke it around them, I don't mind about it smelling :) and when they get older, if they want to try it, they can have all the experience I will have from my life to pass onto them and maybe a bit from my stash ;)

but, I live in the UK, so I think for legal reasons, I'd have to be careful how I went about it.
 
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I would probably give them some from time to time when they are older, but if I caught them stealing I would beat some ass. Stealing is never ok, worst thing you can do.

What? Not even close to the worst.

I would have no issues smoking when/if I have kids. Like someone else said above, it's no worse (and prolly actually better) than having a glass of wine or a cocktail around your kids.

Thoughout my childhood, my dad never tried to hide that he occasionally smoked, but he didn't try to force me to recognize that he did, either. He offered me a joint when he thought I was old enough for it (that I actually declined, because I didn't think I was yet).
 
Really? Thieves are worse than child molesters, murders, and rapists? Damn, I never knew I was such a horrible person.
 
It's something I've thought about often. Is there room for drugs, even ones like weed, in life once you have kids? I think there should be, I mean, weeds no worse than getting drunk, and everyone continues to do that after having children. I think depending on the social situation and legality of it when I do have kids, I will, but I probably wouldn't tell them until they're older.
 
I plan on smoking when I am the father of a child or children,but I will do like my friends do with kids who still smoke.They do not smoke around or in fromt of the kids,and when they get older and start to wonder what mom and dad are doing in there room?With the smell,just tell them something else than smoking weed until they are tennagers,and then still keep it as low key as possible and if the kids smoke pot,or if not,sit them down and educate them on the harms of alcohol and driving drunk as well as the pros and cons of marijuana smoking,let them know that if they choose to smoke you would prefer they do it at home and not while out driving or at partys where they may be arrested,but I will still be low key as to whether I still smoke,but if they ask me striaight out I will honestly tell them I do,but just when I am not going to be driving or going out and working ,etc..and probably will not let them know the full extent of how much I smoke until they are old enough to not run to the teachers in some DARE program and tell on me,I will be sure and hide my stash very well,lol...as i always do...
