[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 707554, member: 1550"] I am a parent more on the liberal side and I am spiritial but not religious. If any of my kids sold weed as their livlihood, even though i try hard not to judge, I would not exactly be proud of an adult child who sold weed. Id accept it, as long as it is on a legal state, but I would not be thrilled. I am aware that weed is often a Gateway drug, legal or not. You can do better in my opinion educated or not. You want to be more fruitful? Get a two year certificate. You dont have to be a genius to make a decent salary. My youngest has serious learning disabilities and could not read until she was eight. She isnt interested in 9 to 5 either. But she works hard and chose not to get into trouble ever. Even with learning disabilities she is close to getting her degree in ctiminal justice and next year is going to tje police academy. Shes not an academic genius but she wanted to live right and this was her career choice...you obviously would not choose this career but there are other careers where you dont work 9-5. But this is about your family, not your profession.You know they love you no matter what. So have some contact and maybe stick to topics that are not contentious. You dont have to get in their face about your career. There are topics that are not controversial. I wish you luck. [/QUOTE]
