Hi Everyone, I'm planning on trying weed for the first time soon but I have a slight problem. My Dad grows weed and despite leaving the plants for all to see, prefers to smoke when he's on his own. I'd really love to spend my first time on pot with my Dad 'cause I think it could bring us a lot closer, but if I ask him and he says no, that could be pretty awful. I know where to get cannabis, and I could probably gather some friends to smoke it with me, I just think smoking with my Dad would be even better. Have any of you been on the other side of my problem. I assume there are a few pot- smoking parents out there, how would you react if your Son/ Daughter asked to share a joint with you? Any advice (from anyone) is greatly apreciated.
depends on how old you are, if you are under 18 I would just smoke with friends and later when he and you are both comfortable, then smoke with him. If you are over 18 and are mature enough in his eyes than go for it.
yea age is definitely a facotr.. i dont think many parents (some might) would smoke weed with someone under maybe 16 or something... Just a thought
I've never smoked with my mom but if I wasn't on probation I would have toked with here by now. And if I ever have kids I plan on smoking with them.
Okay thanks everyone, I'll probably smoke with my friends first then, me and my Dad had a brief chat about what he was gonna do with all his weed but he wasn't particuarly serious about it, and I doubt that we'll be smoking together anytime soon. If anyone has any more advice please post it.
If later on when my daughter was old enough I would smoke with her, but not until she is at least 18. I would also encourage her not to do so until she was old enough. However, if she did and got busted I would not punish her over it, I would just want to talk about it.
wow no offense to your dad but he would be dumb to say no to you. it's not like you can't find it anywhere else and you will. When my kids are teenagers and ask about it, I will certainly get them high. That way I am in control of the context and my kids can see the positive potential with the herb. If I say no it would sadden the kid and he'd find respite one way or another. If he seeks out friends to smoke with it could be all well and good and it could be bad depending on the setting. It's not like they'd be in danger, but they might look at certain circles of stoners and see no potential with pot. Also, weed brings people together, who better to get together with than your own family?
Smoking is love to me. I really don't think i've said NO to anyone who has asked me to smoke. Your dad may not be so generous but i bet he's close. You are the offspring and what parent would skip an oppurtunity to teach their seed?
tell him your wanting to try it anyway, and youd rather do it with him so he knows youre safe...i dno
saying that your dad grows cannabis on a public forum tells me that you ought to be beaten until you gain some sense.
Well, many thanks to everyone... I still don't know what I'm gonna do but I think I have a better idea now. Having made efforts to avoid giving away my identity I don't think I deserve "to be beaten until I gain some sense", but whatever, I was expecting at least one hostile reply.
