Because I didn’t have f**k all to live for or worry about and wanted to keep pushing it, I cared about nothing and nobody least of all myself, I had nothing more positive to aspire to……luckily I grew some sense and found something worth living for…..many didn’t and quiet a few of my peers are dead and good f***ing riddance, the worlds a better place without them. As I said before, we are meant to be the grown ups here !……..we are meant to be setting examples not encouraging future generations to race to the bottom. We are meant to be promoting something better not another thing to dull the pain of life and fill the void ! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Genuine question I only got an aunt in Ontario am she would even know about the weed culture here never mind in canae she not that type persona an neither are her daughters. But we or our kids are getting it from all angles here, I got teenagers an when every shops ells grinders an blunts, an advertising CBD thos an that it’s hard for them to resist the new trend. genuine question, would you encourage your kids to smoke it, maybe not supply it but would you allow your teenagers to skin up an have a blaze in fromt you you and missu? Or would you turn blind eye to them coming in every night stoned or begging for cash ? I couldn’t and wont There's dispensaries on every corner Katch, bars are much, much fewer in number, my missus has worked in A&E in both countries, UK has a problem with some sort of dependency or addiction culture to be honest, I have been on nights out downtown and not seen after hours violence, in the UK I saw it often, don't know the answer? My kids never once saw me smoke, drink, do anything other than drink tea I never had alcohol in the house, I came from a family that drank and smoked, I learnt from a very early age some important lessons, I think my kids followed my example, my missus drank wine in church however, though not to the point of getting sloshed 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
