My Mom was always worried about me getting caught, and asked me once if she did anything wrong or didn't get me something in life that made me start doing drugs. Which was Pot and acid at the time......
I long conversation of the benefits and comforting ensued.
It was about 2 years later she tried it. We smoked alittle with a glass of wine from time to time. Then she started feeling that she didn't want my little sis to catch us, so she stopped.
My Dad was and still is a real ass my little sister for some reason, so I was her only semblance of a man in our house at the ripe age of 16 this started. So I want to share ths story as well, since I know kids aren't an option in my future, although our nieces and nephews really look up to me as a man as well since their Dad's aren't there either. So I must ponder this a little.
Lil' sis was buying it at the place in town where everyone was getting caught since 1945 I'm sure, so I told her that I would buy it for her, with her money, or smoke her up from time to time. She wasn't getting ripped off, was safe from the po po and I got a chance to be high with her and model a bit. I also knew how much she was smoking as well.
She was 14 I think, but I felt that it was prevention over abstinence. I was also about 18 when that happened. I didn't start till I was 17.5. Just have my 10 yr this summer.
She had a really bad X-perience with an asshole boy friend and said that if she ever did another drug it would be with me. So when she came home with some sweet-acid, as we found out. I did that with her too. I don't think she ever did as much as I did at all. (200 or so hits) and that was okay with me. We had a really good time and used all three levels of the house for different vibes. Then went out for one of my favourite activities....walkin g under the full moon with out flashlights in the forest, back an old colonial trail in our town. I got her alittle freaked and...yes I was driving on two hits....an odd skill I have...and then taught her how to calm down and realize that what we were doing was in our heads and to always remember to be in a safe place or to keep in mind that the ride ends at some point.
I know it a night neither ever forgot.
Now she is 24 and lives with a small time grower, which is mainly for personal use and gifts. I think she might smoke too much and seems burnt sometimes. But she finished a great deal of college before getting her associates degree, which I am proud of. I always told her to put your bills and goals ahead of your bowls.
My Mom married a fairly conservative man, who I'm SURE knows her kids are total heathens, but he loves us anyways, and Mom never smoked again. I'm proud of her for trying.
