How do you feel about marijuana use by other parents?

pp with concerns about secondhand/thirdhand smoke exposure.

There have also been tragic cases where kids have mistakenly eaten gummies thinking they were candy. If you let your kids go over, you should probably have a discussion about how you want them to be safe (probably a good idea, generally, wherever they go, because there may be other parents who do marijuana and just haven’t told you).

Also, I would make sure those moms never drove my kids anywhere. I wouldn’t trust someone who might be under the influence to objectively assess whether/to what degree they might be impaired.

Those parents are losers. If they remain part of the group, find a new group.

Wow a bit defensive aren’t we?

No one said drinking 5 gins at a BBQ is fine. That does not change the fact that pot is a low class drug and yes, it would change my opinion of these moms.

I don’t hear that parent being defensive. You have no idea if they use any pot products.

I am definitely seeing the hypocrisy of wine and beer ok, weed not! Honestly alcohol is pretty debilitating and yet there is not being a question of a wine soaked weenie roast.

Wild hypocrisy. So many of these moms live on assorted Rx uppers and downers, in addition to their sauv blanc by the bottle.

Horrified. I would let my kid see their kids unless at a school setting and under third party close supervision. I’d avoid those people completely.

Exactly. Don’t sign on to host if you can’t hold off on drinking, prescription drugs that are mood altering, or your disgusting drug use.
My kids aren’t going to have much in common with the kids of druggies anyway

I don’t want a parent drinking while hosting a playdate and I see weed the same. I’m not sure I’d care at a party but it would make me wonder if they do it when my kid is over.

Was it CBD or THC? These are different things. CBD will not get you high.

different poster than you’re responding to

I don’t drink, do marijuana, or do any other drugs. While I certainly don’t think adults should be getting drunk around kids, an adult drinking in moderation around kids doesn’t bother me as much as someone smoking marijuana around kids, because (as I indicated in my earlier post), secondhand marijuana smoke is dangerous to everyone exposed (and children are particularly vulnerable because their brains are still developing). I’ve never heard of someone getting secondhand drunk because their sitting next to a drinker.

I think the issue of class is irrelevant. I don’t see anything particularly sophisticated about impairing your own mental processes with any chemical, so I have no idea what a high class drug would be. I think addiction is present in every income bracket and social level.

But these two women weren’t doing it around children. They left the party and came back.

Nobody talks about a CBD/THC joint. A joint has marijuana flower in it. Flower has 60 chemicals related to CBD and THC.

Second hand smoke outside? Fifty yards away? Please.

But high people are often annoying. They're either annoying people or they're not.

I trust weed moms more than momarita ones. I expect any parent to host my kid sober. I don’t equate behavior at a social gathering to be the entirety of their parenting behavior. Especially if it’s a block party and no one is driving.

Excuse me, you are being too rational for this board. I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Also, look into edibles. Smelling like weed is tacky.
