 Would you smoke pot around your kids?

 No. I'm an idiot when I smoke pot

 Sometimes it's nice to be an idiot. I take things way too seriously and think too much usually.

 i don’t consume weed anymore, but it was hugely, profoundly beneficial in many ways like being able to relax, stop overthinking, feeling lighter & happier…and sleep well.

i think there’s nothing wrong with mild weed just like there’s nothing wrong with moderate alcohol use around kids.

 It's definitely nice to take a break from thinking, but I would prefer to do it through music or painting than drugs

 Totally. I think I could use more music and painting in my life.

 I believe in the open and honest approach too. I smoke with my kids, well a couple of them, granted they are adults. 
Cannabis > alcohol
