I have pretty honest conversations with my kid. He is pretty bright and I can explain things to him.

A while back we had a conversation about weed. I told him it's just a plant that grows, gets harvested, processed and smoked. Since, he's still single digits in age, I told him it's an herb. I didn't really want him screaming "weed!" If he smelled it outside.

I'm nervous about him growing up today. It's a scary world out there, alls' I can do is try and teach him about it.
