Raising children is our greatest responsibility in this life. This task is the responsibility of the parents or guardian to do as they see fit. Some people do this task better than others. Myself, I looked upon it as my duty to continue our family legacy. Building up strength of character, esteem, confidence, morals, ethics, manners and the ability to believe in your abilities. I took it all very seriously.Let me ask yall this, do you think it's immoral to have kids around a grow? Were talking 13 - 18 year old kids, honestly.... child endangerment! I can say I don't condone them playing around the grow unsupervised but if they were there with you asking questions and showing interest then why not? I hate when people freak out when I’m smoking where there’s children around and I’m not talking right in there face but discretely, or have it present when there around and people freak out like, “ oh my god you’re going to smoke here?” or “your going to pull that bag out now? There are children around!” but if I were to crack open some cognac or some whisky no one gives a shit! I can get drunk and act likes an ass but I can’t discreetly smoke a dam joint or talk about weed when there’s kids around?
It’s clear that dad was a complete moron. Teach your kids, don’t miss treat your kids.
I suppose that there is an element of "stepping on toes" when it comes to debating how to best do the job.
This is where the hard part comes in. People have so many differing ideals, beliefs and values, that it's difficult to judge the way another parent does their job. For the most part I try not to. I cannot effect real change in the way others are going to do their job, and it wouldn't be my place to do so. Nor is it anyone else's place to judge/change the way I raised mine.
I agree with drymouth, there is a double standard when it comes to alcohol and herb. The drunkards are content overlooking the the negative effects of excessive drinking around their kids, and often all too willing to bash us herbalists.
Sadly, it's clear some folks do a poor job of raising their children.
If your kids are ratting you out to the cops, you have seriously effed up on at least two counts.
First, screwing up as Dad so bad they abhor you, and second sending them on the path to a carrier in law enforcement.
