Let? There going to do it anyway.
but it really depends on their maturity I guess. 15 or 16 seems reasonable.

dude do you remember how fucking stupid you were when you were 16? I do. For me, as long as my kids are doing well in school and not getting into trouble with the law, then I'm going to let them have a lot of freedom.
I plan to educate my kids about drugs based on my first hand experience, and not let them get their information from public school teachers who don't know what the fuck they're talking about. I hope my kids will make intelligent, informed decisions. That being said, I think 18 is the age where all becomes OK. BF/GF spending the night...? That's a different realm entirely, and as long as they're living under my roof, that's not gonna happen.
I used to sneak my girlfriend into my room basically every night for like 8 months and all we did was fuck and cuddle naked in bed. I seriously don't know how I didn't get her pregnant with the literally hundreds of times we had unprotected sex. Hahaha so no way is my kid gonna be ALLOWED to do that.

I was pretty mature at 16... then again I was pretty mature at 13 though too cause my parents divorced I basically raised myself.
Really depends on the kid. I can think of a couple 15 year olds I'd rather smoke with over 20 year olds.

well no offense that just shows your maturity at the time. I did the same shit at 17 only she was on birth control

They'd probably do them without my permission first, but if it was up to me, when they're already on their "life path", so to speak. Like, when they're already in college, knowing what they want to be doing for the rest of their life.
I love psychedelics and would never deny them to anyone, but I started using them a bit too early.

certainly not at any age where I would suddenly be finacially responsible for a grand baby.
Maybe pot at like 18. Too young is not good in my opinion.

Probably never, Once they are on their own and have everything under control I probably wouldn't mind it. Wouldn't happen under my roof when they are under 18 for sure. I knew a lot of kids where their parents would play the "friend" and let their kids rule the house having parties doing drugs and shit with their parents. I'm glad mine weren't like that. To me thats pretty reckless behavior.

not at all
thing is iv heard alot of people say it would be better cause you can keep an eye on them but there going to do things without your supervision as well so theres realy no gain in saftey
plus i think its important as a parent to maintain that certain line of authority-your there to raise them not be their drinking/smoking buddy so 18 or when thereout of the house

Well yeah, that's my point...that teenagers make dumb ass decisions. Maybe there are some who were put into situations like yours, where they had to raise themselves, therefore maturing much faster than others...but come on. Look at the average high schooler compared to the average undergrad student...there is SO MUCH development that occurs during these years...I feel like weed & shrooms could be VERY damaging to an aging and maturing teenage mind. I took shrooms for the first time when i was 18 and I still feel like I should have waited longer.
Also OP, it sounds like you have a good relationship with your kids, but I am VERY glad my parents didn't allow drugs and promiscuous activity when I was younger. Discipline is GOOD for kids, and I can only imagine what I'd be like now had my parents just not given a fuck

if they handled business (school, job, etc.), i would give them plenty of freedom to do what they want. i would never condone drug use, i just wouldn't reprimand it. also, i probably wouldn't let my kids smoke pot until they were at least 16 just in case to avoid any underlying long-term psychological impairment. also, bf/gf can only spend the night if i have a good standing with said individual. if i don't trust you, you can't sleep in my house. that's that.

Smoke pot WITH them? As long as they're doing OK in school, the first time I catch them.
If he's pimp enough to pull girls at a young age, they can sleep over. Now if I had a daughter, that shit ain't gonna fly!

i was emancipated at 15, so i started allot of shit way too early. honestly, my kid is a.d.d. and it (pot) helps him so much. i know allot of 50 yr old people that i fuckin hate when they are stoned. everyone reacts different, at 15 i gave my boy condoms, we have been very open with stuff like that. as far as girls, as long as i dont hear the nasty goin on, he is a responsible guy, just gotta keep him away from the fuckin loonies he attracts.
