If you keep it so hidden, in the safe, only after the kids are in bed etc, how did the neighbours even know to call the cops? I smell BS.

When you're under the influence, whether it's booze or drugs, you're not able to be the responsible guardian that your children deserve. What if one of your kids woke up with a fever? Fell off the top bunk and broke a leg? The house caught on fire? You can't tell me that you'd be able to properly deal.

It's too bad that it took the cops coming to your house for you to shut down the party, but I'm glad you're doing the right thing. Too many parents are too selfish to make the same decision.

You are absolutely right genius. People do wrong shit all the time, and people judge them on it. If someone stole your content or site design you sure as fuck would be calling them a theif and be calling for justice, wouldn't you? hmmm let's see that would be passing judgement.
Now back to reality... ITS NOT COOL TO PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO BITCH ABOUT. IF ITS WRONG OR ILLEGAL, THAT MEANS IT'S WRONG OR ILLEGAL. Double standard.....

Bah.

Your analogy is whacked. The position she is in is after the fact and is now cleaning up. Thats to be praised in my opinion, which is what I did.

Bashing someone after they've turned over the new leaf is useless and borderline cruel.

And my sarcasm about perfect judgemental people is born straight from let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Not exactly a new concept ;)

I apologize for the late response...we have been busy with family issues.

Those of you that think I suck, well, I won't argue....it did suck. There is no BS....I'm not really sure who called and it doesn't really matter who did it. We never smoked in front of the kids, but my son did admit that he got up at night and spied on us through a crack when we were in here smoking, which is probably how the whole thing got out. Again, it doesn't really matter HOW they found out. The point is they did.

For the flamers...perhaps you should read my posts again. I AM taking responsibility for my actions..both good and bad, and I am taking this opportunity to fix what I broke....and I am grateful to have that opportunity.

The moving thing was a joke to lighten the tone. We are moving next April, but it looks like Savannah is the target, and it's just as illegal there.

I have been wanting things to change for a while, but just hadn't really started moving towards making them change......my husband has made an unbelievable amount of positive changes since we almost divorced a little over a year ago, and I guess I felt like if that was the only compromise I had to make, when he was doing everything else right....it seemed reasonable to me. At that point, it didn't affect our children. Now it does, so obviously changes must, and will be, made.

On a side note...one of these kids I had nothing to do with, as he's my step-son, and my son was a product of a non-consentual sex act. I hesitate to say rape because I don't want that to ever taint my son's opinion of his father, who died two years ago, but I did not consent to it whatsoever. And my two daughters were born after I was married. My husband and I wanted children together, as most couples in love do. I never so much as picked up a cigarette while pregnant or nursing my babies. I didn't even participate in the toast at my wedding because I was pregnant. So, the birth-control statement baffles me, but, whatever.

You're right, I should expect flaming, I suppose. But I felt that I was taking a negative thing and turning it into an opportunity for my family to be stronger and healthier, and if you, my peers and the closest thing I have to co-workers, can't support that, when you are the only adults I communicate with all day, well, then why even read or respond to my posts at all?

Those of you who aren't parents and are criticising me, I honestly hope that you find parenting as easy in practice as it is in theory. Mistakes WILL be made...it's unavoidable. Some are worse than other, and mine was one of the worse ones...BUT my children are thankfully safe, healthy, and still at home, and while some of that can be attributed to good luck and the willingness of the caseworker and deputy that were here to see that our kids really do mean the world to us, the rest is due to our parenting. We aren't shitty parents because of that one thing...we're good parents who made a shitty decision. If all our decisions, or even some of them, were along the same vein, then our kids would not be here still.

We don't have much, compared to some of you. But our kids aren't lacking the things they need, and some of what they want. They have a home big enough for us all, food to eat, clothes to wear, a warm bed, and more than enough toys for ten kids.....trust me, I know because I just cleaned their rooms. Yes, it's true that the cash being spent on weed could have gone to better things...but $40 a week isn't going to make or break us, thank God. Still, your point is taken, though it was before you made it, anyway.

In any case, I'm not a bad person, guys, and I think most of you know that, I just made a bad judgement. If you base your opinion on me on one mistake I made, well, that's your choice. There's nothing you guys can do or say to me that will drive the point home any more than it was the other day.

To those of you who simply offered support, it is much appreciated. That kind of rallying does mean a lot to me, because, as I said before, you guys are the closest thing I have to co-workers, and the only people I communicate with all day.

Thanks, babygirl! I'm not going anywhere...I fucked up, but I learned my lesson and thankfully, no one was hurt...my husband just has to go through drug treatment classes and we'll be under supervision by the state for six months or so......as long as we straighten out, and believe me, we are, lol......our family will be stronger in the long run. We took this as an opportunity to be an example to our kids of two things: 1-how to handle it when you screw up and get caught, and 2-how pot can cause major problems.
I asked which people would rather their parents be, drunks or potheads, and I think my point ws missed...I know it is best for neither....but my point was that it is amazing to me that the legal substance is more destructive socially. Of course, that's my opinion, but look at places like Amsterdam, where it is legal...they don't have a significant disadvantage socially due to that law....if they even have any disadvantage at all! But all that is moot, because we are now non-smokers in any case, lol.
Thanks again for the well wishes!
