I would never, in a million years do that now! My son does know I smoked a joint when I was younger. Not that we "bragged" about it to him, but to let him know we were kids once too that then, we thought it was okay...when it wasn't. We let him know that his parents are not perfect parents, but we try our best and we were definitely not perfect kids, that we understand what teenagers go through.

I've always been quite open with my son and he knows I will discuss anything and everything with him. That is one reason why, when he was in the sixth grade and they had the "talk" with him, he brought all the information home and wanted me to explain it further. He has even asked me a couple of years ago just exactly what is a "rubber." I explained what it is, how it is used and the pros and cons. I truely believe that is why he is such a great young man...he will ask us anything...and we answer as honestly as we can. I would rather he learn and hear these things from us instead of the "boys."
