    I'll just educate them and be honest with them. And if they are smoking that early they need to know that that ? will slow you down over time.

    Smoking ANYTHING is bad for you. Just that weed is WAY LESS bad than other drugs.

    i feel that, i feel like if i had a kid and found out they where smoking trees i wouldnt trip, i just be like you better keep them grades up and teach them about the negatives and stuff... especially if you yourself smoked at a point in your life dont be a hypocrite

    naw, i'd explain to that ? how life works. About the drug test, tha money, and the bills. I mean i'd tell em if you got a job, a house, a car, and got yo ? together it's nothin wrong w/ smokin. But if you callin me to help you with ANYTHING money wise then you can't afford to smoke weed. You need to have yo ? together and not let that purp hold you back AT ALL what so eva then it's nothing wrong with smokin.

    so after explaining that to them they could come in the crib high as a blimp but as long as they got a grade A paper in hand ?

    15-17.... i really dont know how Id handle it. I got caught high comin in the house and my moms was trippin...my pops just told her to chill. they probably thought it was a phase. It really depends on what type of kid they are @ that age. If he shows signs of being a follower or being weak-minded, Im deading that ? right there. Sit him down and school him. If he the type that shows leadership qualities and self-control, id still school him but i wouldnt be strict about it. It depends on how much guidance you feel they need

    Might sound strange, but if they were going to do it regardless, I'd rather them do it in the house where I can monitor. I wouldn't want them feeling the need to sneak off and do it, then I don't know what's going on at all.

    See thats why i wouldnt be strict. Cuz i was the first out of all my friends to get high but I stopped by the time they were becoming heavy smokers.

    But there's a thin line between tolerating it and condoning it. I wouldnt want them to sneak it but I dont want them thinkin they can roll up on the kitchen table

    You're right. Tell them to take that to the garage. And stuff a towel under the door. *high five*

    I'd be like Uncle Elroy.......

    I don't care how high you get in my house, as long as you let me hit the blunt too...........

    But seriously I don't smoke, so I'd tell them to go outside with that ?

    Open your kids eyes to what's real in society and don't let the schools, friends, or the streets be their only teachers

    My pops would always pass me the joint when I was 14 but that was because he seen I was alwready smokin weed and cigs at that age. But being that my son dont do it then I wouldn't do it with him. (not that I smoke anymore but a father & son conversation about life over a doobie isn't so bad)

    at that age i sure as hell will. a family that will blaze together will stay together. its funny how i had to go sneak off to burn as my mother wouldnt allow it in the house. yet she would have no problem being the one passing me a beer or any other alcoholic beverage let alone permitting me to drink liquor period. she used to tell me it's good for the worms
