[QUOTE="Nandina, post: 751776, member: 23742"] Busy, my son said exactly the same thing about needing to know your supplier. At the time, he hadn’t even started smoking pot (still in school, no money, etc.) but he couldn’t wait for the day when he gained his independence (turned 18 and/or left home) so he could start legally smoking cigarettes, try pot, drinking and all the other ways of being an “adult” I talked to him a lot about not starting cigarettes, not only because they’re unhealthy but that they are very expensive and he would be be broke all the time. Didn’t work. I begged him not to try pot due to his family history of drug/alcohol abuse on both sides of birth family and which I had educated him about since he was a child. Didn’t work. This was a kid who, as a child so hated the smell of cigarette smoke, that he would sort of rudely “cough-cough” whenever he passed someone smoking in public. Then—welcome to senior year in high school when everything changed. Peer pressure was just too strong and now he’s a broke, pot and cigarette smoking, vaping 18 year old kid, living on his own, with a cough that sounds like he’s been smoking for 30 years. [/QUOTE]
