Smokn Weed n Raising Ur Child

I have a friend.. who has this precious baby gurl. Well she start'd smokn dat chronic again.. n now its gotten lil krazy'ish. I mean Dayum.. i mean i dont see nuttn wrong wit smokn.. but tha fact that she doin it alot.. specially her boyfriend. I kno its not right to smoke in tha first place.. but i can understand why she wants to smoke.. but one thing i dont like iz tha fact that dey Stay smokn alot. Its really bad.. spendn money on it.. wen dey could b usin it fa otha things.. n its jus tha point of dem doin it. I mean.. i could understand if she smoke ocassionally..sure das not so bad.. but her doin it all da tyme.

I jus wanna see wut pplz thought on dis might b. Thank you

I'm thinkin' it's illegal. They can go for it but will end up losing their child. Bad for them but better for the kid.

I'm almost positive my parents both habitually use marijuana. They're great people, fantastic parents, and I've never been affected by their drug use. If, by "chronic", you mean laced with PCP, I think that could be a different issue.

If you feel obliged, call Child Protective Services.

Na

I can't do that. They my people. I've known her since I was like wut... in Kindergarten. What I can say is that they all have alot of stress. You know.. her family dont 'talk' they 'yell' Iz krazy.. I can only wish for the best, and offer my assistance in any way. The smoking isn't harming the child.. but its just not a good environment that I feel the child should be around. Dont get me wrong tho. Whenever they smoke cigarettes.. they make sure they dont smoke around her.. especially weed. I just wish they could put that money to better use.

If it's cutting into the child's budget it's harming the child. If the residue smoke in the house doesn't count.

hmm riight..

Well ofcourse its harming tha child.. but wen i said it.. i meant that it didnt directly harm her.. because she has clothes, food, diapers.. everything she needs she has... I'm sayin that it could b betta for her if dey used tha money dey used for smokn..to buy her new things, better things.

Yes.. residual smoke will b in tha house.. and ofcourse thats bad.. but its her mom who smoke also.. not just them.. so even if dey stop'd smokn.. her mom has to also. U kno wut im sayin?

My ex and son's father's parents smoked pot around him and let him do it when he was a teenager and he is now a junkie and the parents don't know why .....( i wonder) You can't teach your children that it is o.k to do any drugs!

I smoked my brains out when I was younger, but my parents would have killed me.

This mother is irresponsible, and you should confront her about it.
Tell her you care about her and her baby's future. Pot get you know where.

Nope.

But I be tryin' any way!

Dayum, Good2Go was right on the mark. The problem with any illegal substance is that it could land a parent in jail while their poor kid gets carted off by the Child Protection Agency and placed in foster care. I admire your concern, and can only hope that one day you'll turn out to be a better parent than your friend is.

By the way...you reminded me of one of the kids I use to work with at the center. I know your not Vinny...but you too look so simular you could be brothers.

You wouldn't happen to be Lumbee by any chance, would you?

It usually just means very good pot.

But ya never know.

DayumQuitPlayin - Can you clarify? And perhaps type out your words using grammatically correct English? ( I know this is a stretch coming from me...but please? ) Not busting your balls bro, but it's hard to read your writing, and it doesn't really present you all that well.

Peace,

WA

I am the "friend"

Ok lemme just clarify a few things that my friend (DayumQuitPlayin) wrote about..yes I do smoke weed. NEVER around my baby *not even cigarette smoke*, you guys are misunderstanding what he wrote..she has never seen me smoke, maybe a cigarette but I plan on quitting that too once she's older and knows what cigarettes are (she's 3 months old now)..so it was not all how you are taking it. I smoke weed in social settings and once again *NOT AROUND THE BABY*...I know everyone has experimented with weed...so don't think I'm some kind of pothead mother who doesn't take care of her baby. Because it's not like that! HOLLA!
