Ended up washing my pipe and my kids water bottle at the same time. Good times

Hey everyone This winter will be my first with my baby. We don't smoke around the baby. We currently smoke outside. However we live in michigan soooo it's about to get cold.

We have a ranch style house with a basement. There is a bathroom down there with a vent but my husband is convinced the smoke will go through the floor. 🤦‍♀️

Any suggestions

It's hard to beat a solid high while watching my son play little league baseball. Plus the concession stand has great snacks! ✌️

Hello, I am a clinical psychology Psy.D major looking to conduct research on fathers and parenting. Participation in this study will place you in a Raffle for two 25$ gift cards from Amazon! A brief online survey looking at how Adverse Childhood Experiences have affected parenting attitudes and how Protective Factors can act as a buffer to those Adverse Experiences.

Qualifications: Fathers with children ages ranging 0-5 years old

Hi all! Just wanted to say happy Father’s Day to all the stoner dads out there!

Honestly it’s a good day to toke up and relax, as a dad myself. Cheers all!

I use indica exclusively. Make my own edibles. Usually take them 5 or so hours before bed.

Sometimes I mix in CBD.

Sometimes I sleep great, other times my mind won't settle down and I can't sleep at all.

Any thoughts or tips to avoiding insomnia? I'm having insomnia more generally recently, high or not.

I know CBN is supposed to be a thing. I don't know if that's in the stuff I have and can't look up the strains as I didn't keep info about them.

Curious to know if anyone has participated. I was open to the idea until I was contacted by the "journalist" who was dismissive and a bit condescending in her tone. Patience and tact are important to have and I didn't detect either of those qualities in that very brief phone interaction we had.

I decided since she couldn't be transparent about the intentions of the article beyond collecting information and there is absolutely no incentive for participation it wouldn't be worth the time.

There is still al lot of stigma around parents who consume cannabis despite the progress we have made with awareness, education and legalization. How we are portrayed through media is very important, especially on a platform as widely digested as the WSJ. If you have ANY reason to believe a journalist does not have the best interest of the community in mind, it might be wise to reconsider what information you are willing to give them. Peace.

Hey all, I've been a long-time lurker here. It's been incredibly comforting to see a community where open discussions about parenting and marijuana can take place without judgment. Thank you!

This might be a long shot, but I also want to give a shoutout to Matthew Hensley, if you're here and happen to be a part of this incredible sub (and if that's even your real name! lol). I want to extend my deepest gratitude to you. Your book provided not just information but also perspective, understanding, and most importantly, a way forward for my family in a difficult situation. I have found absolutely no other resource that addresses such a nuanced topic with both depth and empathy!

Thanks again to this community for being a space of support and knowledge. And a huge thank you to Matthew Hensley for making his wisdom and experience available to us all.

A Virginia Senate committee voted unanimously in favor of advancing a bill on Wednesday that would prevent the state from using marijuana alone as evidence of child abuse or neglect. The change is meant to protect parents and guardians from discrimination around cannabis use and possession, which the commonwealth legalized in 2021.

The Senate Courts of Justice Committee, voted 15–0 to report the measure, SB 115, which is sponsored by Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas (D). If it becomes law, the measure would further provide that drug testing in child custody and visitation matters “shall exclude testing for any substance permitted for lawful use by an adult” under the state’s alcohol, cannabis and drug laws.

A person’s “lawful possession or consumption” of those substances, the bill says, “shall not serve as a basis to restrict custody or visitation unless other facts establish that such possession or consumption is not in the best interest of the child.”

Obviously not going to be toking all day for an upcoming disney trip, but would love to have my pen and maybe some edibles stashed in my suitcase. Whats the best and safest way when you're flying? Pen in suitcase?

Thanks in advance for the tips.

I love candy as a munchies, particularly hard candies and chewy candy. But I gotta stop eating junk food. What are some good alternatives? Was thinking about getting Ricola to suck on for example

To sum it up, custody eval recommended I stop using MMJ or I lose my overnights and driving privileges. I agreed in mediation but my ex demanded 4 more years of testing or else she wouldn't agree to joint physical. We stopped negotiations there.

I really do not WANT to take this to court, but I may be forced to. Unfortunately I can find absolutely 0 other cases where this has been a factor. I thought the law was supposed to protect me?

I am so hopeful I can find an attorney that has any experience with this. While I ha e a very good attorney on my case already, he can't find any info either.

This could potentially be a precedential case for MMJ in MN. I am remaining hopeful I can find an attorney passionate about this. Any and all help appreciated.

Do any of these other things really do anything?

Ohio is voting on a ballot measure to legalize recreational cannabis on November 7. The opposition campaign is running scare ads about the effect that legalization will have on children, but I thought this was an interesting bit of information from a recent poll:

Notably, 70.3 percent of parents said they plan to support legalization compared to 52.1 percent of people without children.

This is kind of the opposite of what I would have expected because for many years the main playbook that prohibitionists have used is to try to scare the shit out of parents. In fact, the main reason that the legalization movement died in the late 1970s (it had a lot of momentum earlier in the decade) is because of an uprising of parent activists that were very successful in organizing and pressuring politicians to oppose any kind of cannabis reform. Looks like the tide has turned though and the scare tactics aren't working anymore though especially in Ohio where that has been the main focus of the opposition campaign. Props to all the wise parents of Ohio that see through the bullshit!
