"Ya, I know mom". I am a strong believer in sharing all the wisdom and warnings to my children so that maybe, just maybe, they will hear their mother's words in their head and think twice.
Well that mother's intuition thing I got going on was dead on....
Today's Boston Herald had this headline:
Dozens hospitalized during DJ Avicii show at TD Garden
I immediately texted Frack a pic of the story. He was at work. Last night when Frack arrived home safely, I was waiting up for him. We had a pleasant conversation and off he went to bed warning me that he had to get up early for work today. I saw no evidence of hard partying, to which I was grateful. Frick, Frack, My Guy and I have had many a conversation about drug use. My Guy and I shared our experiences with them both, as they don't amount to much, and by that I mean neither of us had ever even tried hallucinogenics of any kind. Call us square, but I'm not completely innocent. I may be part of that 80% of adults that recreationally use marijuana, or I may not. But it always stopped there.Whatever the case, at the ages my kids are, My Guy and I try to have honest conversations about drugs with the kids.
And Frack's response to my text this morning?
"Yeah, I know"
"A lot of kids on Molly. That would suck to be those kids."
I'm glad that Frack is a very good listener.

Good Mothers make good kids
In my youth, I did drugs for a whole week one night. Not a good experience. I was glad to go see Pink Floyd's "The Wall" concert twice because I missed it the first time. My friends found me in the L Parking lot talking to a lamp post because I had a nasty trip of acid!
You just keep on keeping on with those kids. You are on the right track.
