Would you let your kid smoke pot?

Yeah, when I'm a parent, I will. I stopped smoking like a month ago, because I got busted, but I used to smoke like 3 times a day. I don't think I would let my kid do that, but if they wanted to go get high, more power to em. I'd rather have em out living life to the fullest than living in fear of punishment and not living as a result. I wouldn't encourage it or even talk about it. If they discover it, thats chill, if they don't thats chill too. If I catch them, I might talk to them about limits and make sure they don't try other drugs and stuff, but weed isn't near as bad as everyone says it is.
 
i wouldnt let him...i'd kill the fucker haha...i've tryed pot like couple times...i didnt like it...id rather drink so since i dont like pot...my kid cant either
 
nice topic dante.

Yeah I would, I know how much I love to blaze and I wouldnt want to make their life more stressed over something that I really dont have control over anyways. I wouldnt encourage them to start but if they are interested in it and like it, I will respect that completly because I know where ther coming from being a kid who hasnt gone more than a week since 9th grade without sparking. I wouldnt wana be the kind of dad that you feel you have to hide stuff from and are scared of being caught by. As long as it doesnt get in the way of school and their other ambitions, if they have their friends over and they go out in the backyard for a little to spark up I won't say anything except maybe get my wife to cut up a fresh watermellon for munchie foor afterward or something.

But it depends on their age too. If i caught them coming home high in 7th grade we would have a talk... They have all of highschool and the rest of their lives for that. no need to burn ganj in middle school your just a little kid still
 
I'm not going to let them smoke, and if they start and get caught I would punish them. But I am not going to be some psycho parent, I'd just have a conversation about it before I thought they would do it then I would say that it really is their life but that they should try other stuff that's better for them. But man I'd still blaze a shit load.
 
I totally agree, but I wouldn't let my children smoke until they were older. Like if my 15 year old child was smoking weed I would punish them for it.
 
I think generally I would be ok with my kid smoking pot on occasions after like the age of 14 or something...but I definately wouldn't want him to be a mad stoner who was going to fail in life or anything.
 
I think it depends on the situation. if the kid is being a dumb shit about it, then no, if they are responsible with it, then yes
 
i wouldnt really care to much i smoke with my friend and his dad all the time and his dad is a fairly successful person. as long as my kid doesnt spend the majority of his time doing it i wont make a big deal out of it
 
if i caught him i would take it a way and give a good speech about why its bad. but i wouldnt go looking for it. if i didnt know not a big deal.
 
Age dependent. If my kid was in grade 9, then no, if I caught him in grade 11 or 12. I wouldnt give him the go ahead but i would be hard on him. If his marks started to fall head go to rehab. that would make a kid get good marks.
 
^i agree with the grade 9 issue. grade 9s are gay and do it t be cool. around grade 11-12 id also be cool wiht it unless he made a habit out of it and his schoolwork didnt drop.
 
i guess i can't be a complete hypocrite and forbin smoking totally, but i would have to lay down the law if it caused any legal problems, they were selling, or if it was affecting school/work whatever just because i don't want my kids to end up like me and have to be sent to rehab.
 
Did your parents let u smoke? probably not. did u do it anyway? yup. same thing will happen to us when we are older.
 
i'm gonna be open with my kids, its not gonna be the end of the world for him but he def. will get a talkin too
 
im gonna use it and everything else as incentive

if they do well in school then they can do whatever the hell they like.

if they dont, then freedoms get taken away and i will ask to see their homework and shit everyday and get very involved.

i think that if they prove that they can keep there shit together than they deserve freedom. what doesnt work is when kids get babied all through high school and end up going to college and without parental motivation they just dont know what to do. i see it alot and i dont want my kid to end up like that.
 
i would def not let my kid smoke. i mean its kindof hypocritical, but it really does affect the short term memory, which, i have learned, is not so good. like i know that he'll probably do it anyway, but i dont want to catch him if he does, cuz i'd most likely flip on him
 
the one thing i wouldn't let my kids do is drink, drinking is so much worse than smoking. I still wouldn't encourage smoiking though, i would look down on it, but they are gunna do what they are gunna do
 
I'd probably treat it the same way as alcohol... at a certain age, you get to make your own decisions. I don't smoke, but I don't think there's any real compelling reason to forbid others to do it that doesn't apply to alcohol (aside from the fact that you're inhaling smoke, that is, but there are also health issues with alcohol that don't apply to weed).
 
It's interesting to see that people who smoke themselves decide that their kids wouldn't be able to do so... I can see that the reasoning would be that they went through shit because of it. I think that you have to take the bullshit and bad things that you went through, and instead of simply banning them from doing it... TEACH THEM. No matter what you do/say they will fucking keep doing it. Especially if they are teens... they just don't give a fuck. Fighting them will only cause problems, and I gaurantee that is not gonna make your life any better. I'm just warning you that being strict on your kid because of something like this will not solve the situation. Knowledge is power, reprimanding him will teach him nothing.
 
so are you saying you should let your kid get away with alot of small shit so in the end they are going to think they can get away with big shit. my parents i guess you can say are stricted and i get pissed sometimes because of the shit the tell me not to do. but im happy they tell me this shit because it shows that actually care about my health and well being, ive quit pot this year and im doing better in school. I wouldnt be anal to my kids but i would tell them about shit and give them the punishments needed here and there for my kid/s to understand what they did. this is if i caught them but i wouldnt like search my kid/s about it. i dont think you can let everything slide with your kid/s because they are just gonna figure they run the show and can do what ever they want i have friends like this because their parents dont give a shit. So to my kid/s im gonna give a shit and im gonna tell them whats right and wrong and i'll punish them in the right manner. not so i look like a hard on but so im doing the right job of a parent and that is making sure your kid is happy and looking out for them.

peace
 
No, you didnt understand what I was saying here.. there is no way my kid is gonna think he's running shit. I'll put his punk ass in his place... but as far as weed goes, instead of reprimanding I would teach... thats all. That doesn't mean I would let him fail school or something...
