When the Baby Boomers first had children, the world anxiously awaited how they would approach the drug question as parents. Could a generation so famously substance-happy have the moral authority to police and punish its own children’s drug use? In the end, some tried (“Pot’s more dangerous now than it was in my day!”) and some didn’t (“So, uh, do any of you kids know a guy…?”) but a rough consensus emerged in our nation’s middle-class households: Drugs are bad, and you should probably avoid them, but if you don’t, you can still grow up to be an OK member of society.
Snoop Lion is too young to be a Boomer, but outside Keith Richards he’s the musician most famous for his love of illegal drugs. Now that he’s reborn as a reggae star, how does the erstwhile Snoop Dogg feel about the possibility of his own children trying drugs? Luckily, we’ve got Drew Magary’s recent profile of Snoop in GQ to answer that question for us:
“It’s not that I would ever push weed on our kids,” says Snoop, who has three children, ranging in age from 12 to 18, “but if they wanted to, I would love to show them how, the right way, so that way they won’t get nothing put in their sh-t or overdose or trying some sh-t that ain’t clean.”
