DeeplyConcerned posted:Here's my take. It's not really about the amount. This guy is clearly cannabis dependent. He's been smoking every night for a really long time. His wife is concerned because it's obvious that cutting down or quitting would not be easy for him. He admits he's basically unable to avoid using it as a coping mechanism. Difficulty quitting and cutting down, etc.. to answer your question it seems the issue here is less that the guys smoking Snoop Dogg sized blunts and more that his wife is concerned about the pattern of use and dependence on the drug as a lifestyle choice. She's pregnant. He shouldn't be smoking around her and definitely shouldn't be smoking with an infant or small child in the house unless he's prepared to shower and change clothes before doing any child care. She may also be concerned that he won't be as capable of doing his part of child care if he's high. And if he is (and I think you're right on this part) dependent on weed as a coping mechanism, quitting just as he goes into a massively high stress first child experience is going to bomb dramatically. Smoking up every night will not be an option. Also, it doesn't say if he's smoking in the house or around her. Prenatal exposure to marijuana is associated with adverse outcomes, including risk of low birth weight, smaller head circumference and even stillbirth. Since she's not smoking, the risk isn't as high, but he might still be creating a risk by exposing her to second-hand smoke. She should be avoiding caffeine now, too, but it's not going to cause her or the baby any risk if he drinks a Mountain Dew.

I can’t find any evidence that smoking weed and then interacting with a baby is even touched on anywhere and it doesn’t seem to align with any actual research. If it’s an area of study for someone asserting this I’ll shut up but this seems like an enormous stretch Edit: i do not think it’s okay to smoke anything indoors especially around kids but I’m not buying that anyone is going endangering their kids by not changing their clothes after smoking a joint outside or something i am a moron fucked around with this message at 15:43 on May 8, 2023 |

Marijuana is considered a lower risk substance compared to tobacco smoke. But since he can get cannabinoids through edibles, that's a safer bet. There is evidence of adverse outcomes of prenatal exposure: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2788451, https://reproductive-health-journal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12978-020-0880-9, but these primarily relate to the maternal parent smoking. If he's exposing her to second-hand smoke daily, she can be at risk. Cannabinoids can also pass through breast milk, increasing the child's exposure: https://publications.aap.org/pediat...heck=redirected. Infants whose mothers smoked have increased risk of SIDS at night, but not during the day: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fped.2022.809966/full#:~:text=Infants%20of%20mothers%20who%20used,during%20the%20day%20(18).. And, while this is an outdated study (2001), maternal and paternal marijuana use lead to an increase in SIDS risk: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11434841/. Basically, it's a psychoactive substance that clings to your clothing and skin. There hasn't been a vast amount of research because it's been illegal until really recently, which makes it hard to get approval to do research, and it's generally not going to be as much of an impact as many other substances. You still don't want to expose your child to it while their brain is growing, because it isn't good for them: https://sitn.hms.harvard.edu/flash/2019/marijuana-exposure-affects-developing-babies-brains/. The rule of thumb is minimize pediatric exposure. Find other ways to consume or make sure you find ways, like changing clothes and at least washing your hands, to eliminate contact. Make sure there's a sober person there to be responsible for child care. Use sensible harm reduction procedures. For the record, I'm pro-legalization and think pot is a lot lower risk than marijuana or alcohol for most people. People should be able to use responsibly and the idea of punishing people for it and not thinks like tobacco and booze is inherently racist and classist. As long as it makes you happy and you're still functional, use away. Just don't expose developing brains to it. Also, don't give babies caffeine. ETA: Lol, that should have pot is a lot lower risk than tobacco or alcohol, not that pot is lower risk than pot. Bonster fucked around with this message at 16:32 on May 8, 2023 |

You can always toss on a robe to smoke - it would cover your clothes and keep the smoke off. Take it off and wash your hands before you pick up the kids and you should be fine.

In my experience of people who use marijuana daily, it's honestly only annoying when they get in their head about it, decide they need to "take a break" and then are loving awful to be around because that's the only thing they were doing to manage their anxiety and they have no other coping mechanisms. Obviously this is not a universal experience. I don't smoke anymore because it makes me super panicky. I'm sure this has nothing to do with the eight or so cups of coffee I drink every day. AITA for disagreeing with my dad and step mum wake up time rule? quote:About a month of two ago, my dad C (53M) and step mum B (51F) created a wake up time rule for me 22F. The rule is that when I am at their house, I must get up at 8am every weekday and 9:30am every weekend day no matter what. The 'purpose' of this rule is that apparently success people get up early in the morning, that seeing me sleep in until nearly midday made them angry when they work hard and their frustrations with me struggling to find a full-time job. I know there's something to be said for waking up around the same time every day to regulate your sleep schedule, but lol at needing to "practice" waking up, that's what alarms are for. (I know some people can just wake up naturally; I am not one of those people and never have been.)
