Judged for using cannabis
I honestly got into a heated fight with my outdated friend Connie the other day. We have known each other for many years, going back before high school even, plus we have consistently been fairly close, however since she had her baby last year she has changed a lot, becoming 1 of those helicopter parents that gets mad about social trends because of “what it might do to the baby.” I have three adolescents, was a single Dad for most of that time, so I know what it’s like to raise adolescents. She was so judgmental in condemning parents who smoked cannabis, that I couldn’t hold it back plus I let her have it. I asked her to clarify, plus she said that yes indeed, she believed any parents who smoked cannabis were unfit parents. Then I told her that I smoked cannabis, plus I had been smoking it every day since high school (except for when I was pregnant, of course). She was completely shocked by this news, but I was honestly often high when I saw her, she just never viewed me as the type of lady who smokes cannabis. I pressed her, asking her to tell me what “type” of lady is a cannabis user, plus saying that perhaps her prejudices were outdated plus wrong. I don’t smoke marijuana around my adolescents ,I don’t take them to the cannabis dispensary with me, I don’t encourage them to try it, but after hours, when I am alone I smokes tons of cannabis, plus she could either like it or see herself out!
