damn, can believe it needs to be said,

don't give drugs to children...

I am willing to talk about 16+

given that chances are they'll try them anyways, and it'll be better for them to know it's safe to do them in a safe place like home, and call a trusted adult for help. better than assuming they are saints and hope they don't do it in a sketchy place when sketchy people.

but straight up giving children drugs? fuck no

    Ha right? 16+ hmm still sus, but at that age, if they want it they'll find it on their own which could be problematic in of itself and then it can turn into "Well if they get it from me, at least I can guarantee safety"

    But a fucking 6 year old? Yeah that's a solid fuck no

    16 is indeed Sus, but less than that is definitely in the "fuck no" category. that's why I put my arbitrary are at 16.

    14 and found my edibles by climbing to the top of my closet, yhea just a talk about it.

    but 6? no fucking excuse.

    hi, just starting experimenting with THC in my 30s as well.

    my assumption is that there's no fucking way a parent can make sure their teen won't try drugs. so it's better for them to try it in a safe place with access to a trusted adult they can contact quickly if they need.
