That's almost the polite thing to do in this situation. It would be hilarious to rip the kid off and then take the money back to his parents and explain. LOL
Someone should do that on youtube.

If I give him a light, he's gotta let me smoke with him, nothing in this world for free.
I was just joking when I said this, probably shouldn't joke though since nobody knows I was joking, and these results are on google, don't want to set a poor example.
I agree with what 1234go said though.

I dunno I've probably done it before. He didn't get the smoke from me. Who knows he coulda been sparking a J. Honestly it's not my business either way and don't really care who asks to use my lighter for a second.
I have had young kids ask me for a smoke however. Are you 18? No didn't think so get the fuck on.

I answsered no to all of it because I don't carry a lighter.
If I had one, odds are it would have been yes cause I really don't give a damn what that kid decides to do and I would probably have assumed from the start that he was already a smoker. Although, If I clearly saw that he didn't know WTF he was doing, I would have taken it away.
So I'm like 33% a good human being.

I partly agree.
The age of consent is largely an arbitrary number. It's like if an old man has consenting sex with a 17 year old, he'll be locked behind bars and likely stigmatized and shunned by all of society, but if she's 18, he'll be in the clear.
It's obviously silly to assume that all 17 year olds are inherently immature and incapable of making proper decisions regarding their sexuality while all 18 year olds can make proper choices. But that's how society is and stigmas like this are very unlikely to change because these ideologies are so deeply embedded into our minds.

You might feel that way about yourself, but comparitively I feel like my life has been a complete success thus far, and indulging in drugs at a young age helped me to start to see through the illusions this world casts upon our fragile minds.
There's as much chance of that 14 year old kid hitting crack and eventually blossoming into a wonderful human as there is in him becoming an absolute POS. Having good people around him is what makes the difference, and good people don't judge others in my experience; they just work to listen to and understand them.
Who knows; by letting him be and befriending the kid, you might be the one that makes the difference in his life. Some square that refuses him with a lecture certainly aint gonna do that.

I'm a smoker but this is close to my answer. 14 is young though. It's not my place to judge people's decisions, but this is a straight up child we're talking about. I'd offer it up for the weed no questions asked, a cig maybe (I can't judge, I was smoking at that age), the rest of the options pretty much no. Kid would have to REALLY convince me of his precocity/responsibility for me to consider helping him smoke DMT.
If the kid was like 17 I might be more open to some of the other options.
Great poll, asante

I was still a child at 21 hex. Seriously. I don't think I developed mentally or emotionally between 14-22 much at all. I just had money so could just do more stuff is all.

Yeah, who knows.
Maybe he'll get picked up by the police for being out of his mind on drugs at the shopping mall. If he didn't have a light, it may not have happened.

There's a huge difference between a toddler and a teen but you can call them both a kid .
As a matter of fact, I refer to myself as a kid all the time because it's obviously that 20 years old is a kid in the grand scheme. Usually refer to myself as a kid with people 10 years older then me . If youre 32 that's sucks you aren't a kid anymore
Yeah as far as the questions I basically said no to all those. I don't speak to children on the streeet
