Steal the kids weed to use for yourself, teach him about double standards, teach him that flaunting the law is okay (as long as you don’t get caught), risk getting caught with the weed yourself by the Po Pos, and as a bonus you raise the risk to your career, house and family even more because now your the “responsible” adult that should know the fuck better and the “but I am a kid” defense won’t fly in court.

I wouldn’t have a problem with my 16-year old smoking weed to begin with. Selling it is another story. So is assaulting me.

I’ve smoked weed maybe a dozen times. Guess its effects must be really underestimated, huh? 😃

I agree. Nothing says “parental integrity” like stealing your kid’s weed and smoking it yourself. Hell, if you can’t afford a little doobiage this week, why not just dip into his wallet or savings account?

Great idea. 😃

I’ll do that while I’m planting a murder weapon in his dresser.
