My in laws are growing marijuana in their garage. I have two young boys, 10 months old and almost 3 years old. The 3 yo gets into absolutely everything…he’s a boy. He’s very aware of his surroundings and inquisitive.
My wife and I are both recovering addicts and are in sobriety, almost 5 years now. We have decided we don’t want the kids around that at this age, we just don’t want to expose them to it so young. So, we’ve decided that we just won’t go there while they are growing in their house, period.
It has caused a bit of a rift. They say they don’t understand what the big deal is and why we won’t let the kids come over to their house. They say the door will stay locked but I doubt that will be the case “always” and the house smells when the plants are flowering/budding.
We’re holding firm on our decision but they keep guilt tripping us that they don’t get to see the kids as much, they’re missing out on time with them, etc.
Are we crazy for the decision we made and holding to it?
What would you do?
