Depends on how old your kid is? If he is 13+(like he should be, getting into internet forums) then its fine. Its called real life,and you can only keep it from him for so long. Not trying to start anything,or be rude etc... Just my opinion.
 
I sure hope you don't have it this bad, but for those of you who haven't seen the documentary The Union. It will change your opinion about weed completely. Look at this guy with MS and as you can see night and day with his symptoms after using it.

Boobies:love7:

My only point was: When I was a kid, nobody talked about drugs,except to say they were bad. So when I got older what did I do? I started trying every drug I could get my hands on,just to spite all of the 'grown ups'. Maybe if we educate kids, instead of hiding it, they will make better choices when someone says "hey you want to try xxxxx?" So if Jr. pops on here and reads all of this,you can explain to him what we are talking about,and why or why not to follow our example.Instead of just shutting it down,and waiting for him to hit college,where its like a 24 hour drug buffet.
 
I want to thank all for participating in this thread. All I can say after watching that video link is wow. Anyoone who cant understand what my point in starting this thread or maybe thier jsut really apprehensive about thier kids seeing it need to watch it as well. Marijuana is widely missunderstood and the govt has preached against it so long,put the fear of it in us. Then they sell us liquor, opiates. Biggest bunch of hypocrasy ever.

As for kids seeing this,they probably already know more than you and me put together about pot. They will learn about it on the street,in school,at thier jobs.

Dont let fear dictate what you educate yourself about. As it was mentioned,when will it be your turn to be in my situation? 50% of us will end up with cancer. 50%!!!! So like it or not,your turn is coming.

Not to mention MS and heart attacks etc.

I think marijuana should be legalized of course. Anyone with compassion would feel at least a bit this way.

Watching that poor man has me scared for myself.knowing that i am progressing very rapidly. Knowing I will end up like him. He said he would find a way to end it without the pot.I know how he feels.

The oxy drugs are now starting to fail for me. Thats when guys start taking more,hoping they will work. And then thier addicted.

Thanks for all the help folks. Wags,please if you want to go ahead and lock this thread or something. I certainly dont want your kids to see it. Or my problems which ni kid should ever have to see.

Too bad for my 2 kids.
 
not knocking your situation needsaresto,just wondering if we have a better place to talk about stuff like this...I have had talks with my squids, were all adults but just gotta wonder how much good sharing everything with younger kids is doing,iv'e seen some bad examples[ame]http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=460053922020[/ame] Id rather row thru some gears with an old worn out 318 than think about it
 
Waggin, They are not talking about drugs here, they are talking about a person with MS and how they can be helped by an HERB, that's right Marijuana is an herb and not a drug but a bonified herbal remedy grown and not manufactured like all other pharmaceutical and illicit drugs are. Drugs are manufactured, some from plants and some just plain manufactured, but marijuana is an herbal plant which is cured by drying and then either smoked or made into butter, baked goods or whatever is needed for the circumstance. You keep on coming back to this post for whatever reason and hopefully you will learn something which will educate you for the better and not take you back to the 20th century where Reefer Madness made everyone who indulged look like a criminal.

BTW, who's holding the Camera for your Valiant 4 speed road trip?

You are a strong man. Keep up the good fight, you and your family have my support and my respect.

Thanks very much Grinder! Folks like you let me know what I am doing is not so bad and I feel better for your compliments. My family is VERY strong because of this MS crap,both me and my wife having it has made our kids very understanding ,educated and strong like me. They dont take guff and speak thier minds and they are both VERY intelligent. We are trying out best to make them as independant and strong as they can be,give them as much love and time as we can.They may need this strength in the future as the MS progresses. They will be the ones to see it all happen and I dont like it,but theres really not a lot I can do about it. If Im in severe pain I leave the house or go in my bedroom because I really dont want my kids to see it.It's very upsetting for them They are even more important than my Dart or my love for mopars of course.

My decision to use mj will not effect them at all. I would never encourage them to use it or use it around them at all.The thought of it is just unthinkable. No plants will be grown where they can find it either. I havent figured out that end at all but Im sure I can work something out.

Geez the poor lady probably wouldnt have got a toke..
 
That poor fellow in the youtube video is suffering from muscle spasms. I get those but nothing so severe. Last night I got muscle spasms in my left arm. It woke me up at 4:30 am as my arm was flailing around. It has happened before and is accompanied by severe pain afterwards. I take 2 percs for this and it usually stops the spasms but not the pain. I wish I had pot to try already. I would have last night. Today I'll be utterly useless until this arm gets better. In fact I'll see y'all tommorow,typing hurts a lot!
 
I haven't been around much lately and my opinions have never carried much weight around here, but having said that I'll chime in anyway.

For short term pain, I had back surgery last year, the first few days are pretty uncomfortable, oxycodone worked very well.

When I had cancer the chemo makes you feel like a bag of ****, smoked some good old BC bud, made me feel like 2 bags of ****, too potent for me I would guess. The old stuff from my youth would have probably been better, this stuff is too much unless you've climatized yourself to it. I honestly don't know how it can help unless your a chronic user to start with.

Generally speaking alcohol does the best job of dulling physical pain for me
 
This was funny at first but is it really the image we want to cast on car enthusiasts such as ourselves.

It is very difficult for me to discuss this without preaching about it, so for those I'm about to offend, please excuse me.

My 20 year old son recently asked me to view The Union, hoping to justify his recreational use of MJ. I'm sorry, but it is pure propaganda. I have had experience with MS and the gent in the video is suffering, but probably not from MS. Why does the marijuana culture so desperately need to justify their case?

I have smoked marijuana. I have used speed, LSD, pretty much everything you can ingest. I was not into injectables, but the main reason for that was I was deathly afraid of needles. I never experienced any sort of revelation that I needed to quit, nor did I ever have a bad experience while high. I grew away from the culture with time and now that all those years are lost, I wish that I had them back, drug free. I paid a very high price for my indulgences. When I think of what I may have accomplished, what opportunities I gave up so I could get wrecked with my friends, I become deeply depressed. There is no question that using drugs, including alchohol changed my personality. It also nearly destroyed my drive and ambition and it likely is aggravating issues as I age.

The worst part of this is watching my son slowly destroy himself. I am helpless to intervene. He reminds me a lot of myself. Very headstrong, convinced he is right. I was fortunate, growing up in the 70's with some very specific skills which were high demand. I was able to maintain a facade of respectable employment. My son is not so fortunate. He has already blown away any chances that I may integrate him into my line of work. He approaches the job market as if he is owed something and cannot even get a job flipping burgers. I cannot give him money as he will not even attempt to better himself, he will only spend it on more intoxicants. Best I can offer is a place to sleep and a meal. Recently he has begun to experience seizures, possibly the result of experimentaion with Ecstasy. Sometimes I think back how my father watched me going down the same path. I cannot apologize to him now, he passed away 15 years ago. I weep when I think of what I must have done to him.

The Union may have got some things right. The marijuana market is big business. Everything is about making a buck and the criminal element is involved in a big way. This factor greatly overshadows the physical risk of using marijuana, but you can't afford to ignore the obvious. Marijuana use, much like alchohol and tobacco is a risk to your physical and mental health.

Tomorrow, I'm heading out on yet another recovery trip for my son. I took some pity, gave him a few hundred dollars and he headed out of town. No luck with a job, he's broke again and I hope this time he will come home and break the cycle. It will be a 4 day return trip and we already have some much needed medical appointments scheduled for next week.

Sorry, but this is where recreational drug use has taken my family.
 
That sucks that getting high has cost you guys so much. Its not like that for everyone.I know quite a few people that smoke,and are very sucessful in life. Two of them are teachers at an Ivy league college.
