I’m kind of surprised by these answers but I know DCUM skews older. I’m a millennial and don’t really drink at home but occasionally eat an edible. I love my family and enjoy spending time with them, but it’s nice to take the edge off on a weekend night!
I have a medical card and it’s legal where I live. Even a beer or a glass of wine gives me a hangover. No issues the next day with an edible. |
Same but I’m 45. |
It was sarcasm that wasn't clearly sarcastic given DCUM. |
You missed the point. Alcohol has always been an acceptable way to socialize, relax, celebrate, whatever. Weed is as legal as alcohol and some people now use that to socialize, relax, celebrate, help with pain, whatever. Only older people who aren’t used to it being mainstream seem to have a problem with choosing weed to socialize with. |
Weed isn’t very good for socializing. I got together with old friends, they all took an edible and then watched a movie and fell asleep on the sofa. I have zero interest. I’m not a big drinker either, but at least that creates a more chatty social evening. |
Some of you guys are protesting way, way too much. |
Maybe. But the OP is asking about if other mothers are constantly asking to smoke weed and actively trying to get you to participate. So if any of my friends and/or acquaintances smoke weed or use edibles, I’m aware of it; they never talk about it, do it in social settings I’ve been apart of, or have invited me. It’s never come up in conversation at all with anyone I know. |
I’m *unaware |
None of my friends are 50 something. We are all 30s to early 40s |
I rarely get asked. I use small amounts and so do a bunch of my friends. We don't plan a gathering for the sake of taking any, but someone might offer some if they have. It's not hidden but not flaunted. |
I take edibles and I know one mom who smokes. I'm sure I know others but it's not something I really talk about with other moms. |
Op here. I don’t think they constantly ask to smoke weed but that is what they get most excited about. I would rather go to a nice dinner or spa. |
I am early 30s and none of my mom friends smoke weed but some have taken edibles here and there. Some of my friends who aren't parents smoke a little more often and I think will continue to do so occasionally after having kids, but there is definitely no "let's get together and smoke culture." At this age all of them are doing it to relax and sleep at night anyway...it's not a social thing. |
But they talk about it, clearly. What I’m saying is in the 10+ yrs I’ve had the same mom friends, no one has ever brought it up whatsoever. So either they don’t do it, or are super discreet about it. |
Why would you advertise it in an area where half the people have security clearances forbidding it? |
