How do you feel about people who smokes pot infront of their kids

I went do this dudes apartment this weekend, and instead of going out to smoke and ride he just lit up in front of his children. It made me feel uncomfortable am I overthinking it or do you guys think it's werid of wrong?
I personally don't think people should even smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol in front of their kids. Maybe that's overboard too? o_o I don't know.

@AmbivalentFriability cigarette smoke is bad for kid's. They get asthma and other health risk before they are even grown

I'm Wiv You And I'm A Smoker.
Secondery smoke isn't right for children of any age.
I had a cat that was a total pothead through me smokin, tried everything to distract him, however he was hooked and would follow me around.

I felt very guilty about it, but young kids getting a buzz is totally unexceptable.

@lacsar I have wine. It's locked up from my kid's
@lacsar There is a big difference between having a glass of wine and toking for the express purpose of getting high. People shouldn't get drunk in front of kids either.

Well I don't know that many people who smoke it but yeah I think it's wrong to smoke it in front of their kids. Maybe only because it's illegal here I don't know. I think it's fine to drink or smoke cigarettes in front of your kids.
I mean smoking in front of them in open air.

@Gingerbreadspice Just remember you are setting the example. What will you do when they ask you if they can smoke?
I'm personally not much of a smoker only socially really. But I grew up with parents who drank a lot. They said I could drink socially with them from about the age of 15. It might not been the best idea but I'm not shocked and scarred for life from learning my parents drank which might happen if parents today try and pull the cotton wool over their kids eyes. Smoking is the same.

Honestly someone should have called Child Protective Services. There is not telling what harm that is doing to those children and their lungs. Plus, if they go to school or day care, they will be able to smell it on them. Have your own vices if you want but PLEASE do not involve innocent children.

I don't think you should subject anyone to your recreational drug use, even if it's something as harmless as pot, if they don't want to be around it/aren't old enough to understand. It makes me feel weird. I guess it depends on how old they are.

I think it is very wrong and sets a terrible example for the children.

Gross, I don't like when people smoke tobacco in front of my kid.
They really should share.

It is wrong and illegal
Wow -- I didn't read the comments before commenting. I thought I would be an outlier in condemning it. So glad there are so many sensible people!!!!!

Just like I would not smoke tobacco around my kids, due to the adverse health effects, I wouldn't smoke pot around them either..

Its legal here, so now its not a big deal just as long as you are not giving it to your kids.
I don't think much of them --whether it is legal or not in that region.

I think it's irresponsible

They're inconsiderate and selfish.
