Have you forgotten what it was like to be a kid?

Kids do make their own choices. No parent ever makes it for them.

Exception is: If a kid has ultra strict parents...and in my eyes those are the dangerous parents that subject their kids to mental abuse too.

I'm curious to know, how you propose to help your children make educated choices if you don't provide the education or the guidelines? Do you think they'll just miraculously be educated from birth? Your answer doesn't make much sense to me. It sounds as if you were just blurting out words to get support while avoiding the question all together. If I'm wrong just let me know your answer then.

Screw that, I have the perfect plan! My kids are gonna think im a geek or loser because all parents usually are, so then when I find out what drugs he does, im gonna surprise him by telling him I do them (which I will anyways), I will act like an idiot and embarrass him while on these drugs so that he will completely be turned off from doing drugs, and never end up like his ol' pops. In the end, this is a win-win situation for me, because my kid will hate drugs and I will be high as a mofo.

I hope that in 10-20 years when you grow out of being a kid, will decide against having children.

Never done drugs. Never wanted to. I know my parents have done them, but I really don't care. It's not something that I'm interested in doing.

Hahahaha, that almost sounds like it would work, except I believe it's been shown that kids with alcoholic parents often turn out to be alcoholics... so you might want to rethink that plan.

Uhh, maybe I misunderstood his response, but I interpreted it as meaning that he plans to teach his kids everything he knows about them, positive and negative, and let them decide what to do about it. It's called Harm Reduction.

and if you were anything like me when growing up...the more my parents said "No" the more I wanted to do it..just to rebel.

haha...yup I am a brat...but all I have to say is that I broke the ice for my younger siblings....as my parents aren't strict as they once were.

I so can't even imagine having kids of my own knowing the kind of shit they can get into. I don't even want to think about it at this point in my life.

DigiNut has no authority to interpret or answer for Samhouse. Only Samhouse can answer the question.

So before you start saying +2, maybe you should decide whether you actually want to contribute an opinion or just follow and agree.

Neither do you, so maybe you should think about that before making assumptions about what people mean and getting in their faces about it.

Is there something wrong with affirming the opinions of someone who's already summed up what you wanted to say? Is that against your conversational regulations?
