It seems like everything that we moms do is subject to intense scrutiny and judged by the "good-mom-eter." If we dare stray from the straight and narrow we are automatically cast aside as evil women who are neglectful at best, abusive for sure and likely to end up having to pay for years of therapy.
During college, I dated a self-proclaimed "former pothead." As someone who had never smoked anything, I initially found his old hobby a huge turnoff. Potheads were like Harold & Kumar, Bob Marley and Wilie Nelson: fun, but not someone you could take seriously. We review the pros and cons of dating a stoner like everyone's favorite weed-lover Willie Nelson.
Paris Hilton joined in the revelry of South Africa's World Cup last week (because you know how she likes soccer players) by almost getting herself arrested for possession of a little herbal refreshment. But she avoided the clink and spent the weekend partying with Leonardo DiCaprio.
The 20th of April only comes once a year, and for those celebrities in the 420 know that means getting high. Whether it's Brad Pitt smoking an L behind Angelina Jolie's back, Charlize Theron getting giggly on an apple bong, or Pierce Brosnan puffing on his $1000 glass piece, these celebrities stoners have made our sexy list. ... Before Brad Pitt passed, he puffed — rolling "the most perfect joints" fellow celebrity stoner Bill Maher had ever seen. He has since given up the habit "for the kids," and perhaps for Angelina Jolie as well. Getting high was something that he used to do with fun love Jennifer Aniston, quite the toker herself.

Nagging won't help; but a partner's unhealthy habit hurts more than his or her life expectancy. Taking on too much responsibility for a partner's bad habit is a classic sign of codependency‚ and an unhealthy dynamic in which one person becomes too wrapped up in the other. As she learns to cope with her husband's smoking; Meagan Francis also explores where his problem ends and hers begins. What does she find? "While it's OK to worry about a partner when they're doing unhealthy things, detaching from their habits—while keeping the lines of communication open—is key. Of course, there are some non-negotiables. Illegal drug use, heavy drinking, addictive gambling, and anything severely self-destructive may warrant a "quit or else" attitude. But for those not dealing with extreme cases, ultimatums aren't the answer, and neither is an expectation that your partner will comply with your wishes. Instead, use your mutual respect to reach a compromise."
