Teach your parents well...

I tripped with my parents for the first time the other day... My dad's 63 and managed to go his whole life without ever having a psychedelic experience. It really moved him, and healed all sorts of psychological damage he had. He told me that it was among the top 3 experiences of his life. It was a great way for the whole family to bond, and totally reinforced how much I love my hippie artist parents. Next on the list: grandma and grandpa... haha. Teach your parents well, right?

 

awesome man. how'd your mom like it?

 

Unfortunately we all aren't blessed to have parents with an open mind that would try a psychedelic (although I do suspect my dad may have tried one). Sounds awesome for you though! I'm just now starting to toss around the idea of telling my parents that I've done a psychedelic. It's definitely a big step to take to say the least.

 

my mom and step dad eat molly and sass with us hear and there. their not really into the trippy stuff.

 

I've been trying for a long time to get my mom to trip with me. I've offered her acid, mushrooms, 5-MeO-AMT, mescaline, DMT and 2C-B. Nothing yet. She has been around while I was on mushrooms, LSD and 2C-B, all on different occasions. She doesn't mind me doing it at all, she just doesn't want it herself.

 

so lucky. My parents see me as a crazed victim of counter culture. They dont care if its good, bad, enlightening, whatever. They just know its illegal and thats enough for them to hate it. There have been SO many occaisons where I could have EASILY so fucking easily dosed my parents with a huge amount of L that would have been a rebirth experience for the both of them! I could never do that though. The only person I would dose without them knowing is someone that has the power to make a change that we so desperately need.

 

my parents have tripped, but i would never dream of tripping with them. that would be a straight up bad trip for me.

 

i actually had a nightmare that my mom replaced one of my friends in a shroom trip. i agree with desos, would be a bad trip for me forsure

 

My parents are 100% straight-edge and think that weed turns you into a lazy scum bag, god only knows what they think of psychedelics.

 

I think my parents would have a better reaction if I told them that I was gay and moving to South Africa with my gay black lover than if I told them I do drugs.

 

Well, whats wrong with that?

 

you are not funny at all

 

I'm gonna be dosing my dad with his first shroom trip soon. I imagine it might be a little awkward since my parents seemed 100% straight edge to us kids until recently, but we'll see. :cheers2:

 

I bet most of our parents are more open minded then we'd give them credit for,we just have to ask.

 

My parents have done waaay more psychedelics then I have, being bohemian musicians throughout the 70s, but as a few said before, tripping with them would be a damn bad time for me. They've been around when I've been on mescaline, and that was decidedly uncomfortable. Still, I'm blessed to have parents that are completely down with psychedelics and who I get high with on a regular basis. The only thing I have more experience with is the opiate class, and they're actually fairly uptight about that.

 

My parents were both hippies in the late 60's and early 70's, and needless to say definitely dabbled in psychedelics. However, my mom's first (and last) negative LSD trip left a bad taste in her mouth, and since then she's always made sure to demonize them. Of course she was far from happy when she found out that I use psychedelics.
My dad is a bit more laid back, but I highly doubt he'd ever be interested in tripping again. From what it sounds like, his frame of mind is more "been there, done that."

 

my parents would be thrilled if i was moving to south africa with my gay lover compared to thier reaction to finding out i take psychedelics

 

even if my parents wanted to, i probably wouldn't trip with them. i know my mom smoked weed and tried absinthe ages ago, but i don't really even like being around my parents when sober... but if there was no stigma it could potentially be a cool bonding experience

 

My dad used to be a big hippie, and when he gave me the "talk" about psychedelics his words were "It's illegal, but if you ever get a dose of pure LSD..."

I'd consider tripping with everyone in my immediate family but my mom, she acts to fragile to handle them.
