and yes, when the kids are in bed i do smoke. Not in front of them (ALthough my sons father up in Manchester does!!)


I totally disagree with this. You smoke pot in the house, but think its ok to do so because the kids are in bed? Smoke floats and stays in the air for a long time. Your kids are sleeping in bed and could still be breathing in your pot!!!

Maybe so but honey childcare means you need to be completely alert and responcible and a good example.Completely unacceptable behaviour choice for responcible parenting!Same with getting drunk with children in your care!If you must wait till they are with the other parent for their visitation.This might save them having to hunt them when something goes wrong or they have to seek full custody because you got busted!

I think you are being defensive. I'm a fulltime father of 2 girls. I try to do my best but I left a woman that smoked cigarettes and pot but wouldn't touch a drop of alcohol. I realized later that she smoked through both pregnancies. I was young stupid and immature. She was hiding it but maybe I didn't want to realize it. Her moods could be off the charts sometime. She defended her use of pot similarily to yourself. She also told me that she hopes her daughters never ever pick up a joint. Many an argument ended with what would the appropriate age be for them to share a joint with Mom. My 2 oldest step daughters are what they like to say occasional users. One is living with a dealer so Mom owes her money now from being fronted some. They aren't healthy relationships. I can only sleep at night and wonder what direction my 2 daughters will take. Do you know how my youngest daughter feels when she would leave elementary school with a brochure on "Say no to drugs". I still think all these girls have a chance but the thing that I will always wonder about is what my ex wife could've accomplished without it.She has so many skills that I envy and she just wastes them. You will probably react the same way my ex does by pointing out all the friends that are so much worse than her. She calls herself functional because she always made sure the girls had what they needed. I often viewed it as her making sure she had what she needed and then tending to everyone else. Yes she hugged them and kissed them and said many I luv u's. But with each daughter there was a few things she was never going to give up even when she was asked to. To anyone on the outside looking in she was a wonderful homemaker,cook, and hard worker that had a secret that none of us could talk about. After being to parenting classes and talking to drug counselors they all know this is the worst drug out there. Hard drugs either kill you or u go to rehab but you can function on pot for years and years. she's now 52 looking 72 and on her own. Still mad as hell at anyone who would dare judge her. But she still can sit back and have a joint at the end of a hard day, and if someone doesn't like it they can go f%^ck themselves.

I don't look at pot as a 'drug'. It is simply a plant that grows out of the ground and if you set it on fire it can be fun! Really I think that people who don't smoke pot shouldn't be able to tell me that it is wrong if they have never experienced it themselves. Don't preach on a subject that you know nothing about. When I smoke, I am still able to fully function. My motor skills are fine, I'm not unitelligent by any means, in fact I am going to college to be a vet. Pot is simply something me and my friends do for fun, like golf. Nothing negative has ever come from me smoking, nobody has died, and I don't push it on non-smokers. I don't expect everyone to agree with me, because everybody is going to have their own opinions on the matter, but don't judge if you don't know. I like smoking pot, and thats just me.

Puckbetty, people get into accidents without pot. It had never altered my reaction time, it does not alter my way of thinking, and I have never met a violent stoner. But also it isn't like anybody is pushing it on you to smoke pot, why are you so afraid of it? I think that all this comes down to is that people are simply afraid of what they don't know. Pot does not make me an uneducated low life at all. I excelled all throughout high school, with a 3.7 GPA. I am in college to be a vet. And I have smoked pot almost every day for the last five years. So if pot really makes makes people who smoke it, somehow unitelligent, then please explain to me how I have succeeded in life so far.
