It’s funny what you learn about your parents the older they get.
My parents were the sort who were pretty open minded but were also always holding me accountable.
I can appreciate their approach as I’ve just finished watching my last child head off to college. I gave them all the recreational marijuana speech. It was the same sort of one my parents gave me before I went off to school. I just told them that cannabis was something that was out there and waiting until going to college was probably best. For the most part, I’m pretty sure my kids heeded that advice. I know that I waited until my junior year before I tried recreational marijuana. This was a discovery I made that started a fondness for sativa and indica that would stay with me through all of my adult life. I never used cannabis in front of my children and I’m not sure that I will. But wow, based on a recent visit with my mom, maybe enjoying some marijuana with my adult children will be fun some day. I just found out that both my parents enjoyed marijuana from the time they were in college til now. And the first thing mom wanted to do when she got off the plane was head to a cannabis dispensary. She was just completely matter of fact about her love of recreational marijuana. And she was going to take advantage of being able to shop for marijuana for sale while she was in town. Turns out, my mom just love cannabis edibles. From cannabis gummies to old school pot brownies, mom tried it all while she was here. And it was actually one of the best visits ever.
