Party time is over:
Let me place your mind in the midst of actual scenarios, of which I have witnessed multiple times as a professional bodyguard.
A mom/dad...
Puts their child/children to bed...
And then commences to participate in their usual drug/alcohol use, while the child/children are sleeping...
Well....After a few hours if getting LIT...
First scenario: The child begins to choke in their sleep.
Second scenario: The child begins to vomit profusely and cry.
In both scenarios, the children needed immediate medical attention.
In BOTH scenarios the parent/parents were so inebriated that there was no way they could operate a vehicle safely.
In the first scenario the parent/parents put their child in the vehicle and unfortunately crashed at a high rate of speed on the way to the emergency room.
Luckily the child was revived and suffered no brain damage, but both parents lost custody of the child, and spent $70,000+ to get their child back, and lost both their jobs and home in the process.
The second scenario, the mom called 911, because the dad was passed out.
The emergency response team arrived and smelled Marijuana on the mom, dad and all throughout the house...and he reported to his supervisor as such.
The parents lost custody of both their children permanently.
What is similar about both of these scenarios?
Both were LEGAL to consume in the states they abided in.
But BOTH are classed as "Controlled Substances"
Drug use and over consumption alcohol use do NOT mix in the responsibilities of being a parent.
You CANNOT justify it nor can you convince the authorities that what you were doing was "legal"
Just because something is "LEGAL" does in no way make it morality and ethically acceptable.
Example: Visiting "Prostitutes" is legal in Nevada...
But try and explain to your "spouse" that it was perfectly legal and acceptable there.
Being a parent is NOT a part time job..It is a full time position for the strongest of souls.
And if you don't have the mental capacity to understand the morality expectations of such..
Then you have no business being a parent.
Just as both of the scenarios above learned the hard way,
There are so many who still refuse to learn by example, but yet continue to follow their own paths to self destruction, all the while, blaming everyone else for their own bad decisions
Post thought: Once you give birth to another soul...
It's time to GROW UP...
Party time is OVER...
You are now responsible for the life of a miracle of God, and there are NO exceptions nor excuses to give you the justification to falter from it....ever...
Because GOD HIMSELF will hold your personally, morally and ethically responsible for your actions as a parent and/or guardian...
