Hee hee! Ah, parental prerogatives!
Friday night she went with friends to a local corn field maze; you know, lame pretend spooky stuff in the dark. They had fun and spent too much money for junk food. Typical kid stuff.
However, when she got home-her eyes were owlish, she was blinking in the light and staggering. Hmmmm. She knows better. I took a really good look at her and a good sniff. Huh-looks and acts a little stoned, but doesn't reek of pot. Then I checked with Bear. Yup, he thought so too-contact high!
So I told her next time she was hanging around people who were smoking pot, she might want to stand farther away...and then we teased her mercilessly for the rest of the weekend. :) Does that make us bad parents? Of course at first she vehemently denied it. Bear asked if she smelled anything weird in the maze or saw anything. Turns out they did see a pair of employees sharing a "cigarette", and smelled something like bad incense. Sigh. I didn't think she was that naive. (Still don't think she was. I just don't think she thought we'd realize at least one of her friends would be smoking something while at a set of mazes at night. Or that she'd be stupid enough to inhale the second hand smoke! ;) ). It's a nice story though.
She'd be so grounded if it wasn't a contact high.
Please gods, don't let us have to deal with that!

I want to go to a corn field maze.
There's a couple around here-and they have mirror mazes and haze mazes set up, too. All with people in costumes to scare you.
Super lame and super fun. By fun, of course I mean making fun of the super lame frights!
OMG! Incense! LOL!!! That's like the oldest fake naive parent snower ever!
No offense or anything. :D
I'd keep my eye on that one. :D
Fortunately, we're not naive parents.
I didn't really get any smell off of her so I don't think she was too close to the source. It's possible it wasn't one of her friends but someone else there. She was giving her real indignant routine instead of her "Oh, crap I'm busted but if I don't admit it maybe they won't know!" routine.
She knows we'd kill her. And her friends are afraid of Bear. Very much on purpose! ;)
Oh, you can toke without reeking. Trust me. :D As long as she knows it's terrible, I think she'll be ok...
The naive was an adjective for the faking, not the parents. Sorry 'bout that. ;)
No worries!
I'm just glorying in not being naive anymore.
I was a naive teenager. I really thought I was smelling cheap incense. *blushes*
I didn't have the chance to be naive. I was handed a joint before I smoked a cigarette. :-O
My older cousins and older siblings all went to the same schools I did.
All the "bad element" were scared away from me before I even realized they were there!
Plus I hated cigarettes. So no chance of me smoking anything at all.
Omg mom you're making me sound like I'm a stoner lol Geez i'm not the bad
