This Wasn’t The First Time She’s Had Backlash
Lea is actually a full time writer who shares that aside from parenting her children, her true passion is her writing. She received a lot of backlash from readers already before for sharing how she believes that smoking marijuana actually makes her a better parent. She had said, “With marijuana, I have more patience. I’m slower to get angry or frustrated, because I understand their frustrations. I am able to see the world through their eyes, to remember how hard it is to be a preschooler or toddler, how things that seem obvious to me aren’t yet known to them. We all have a better day. When my kids are bickering for the 15th time in as many minutes, I can disappear for 30 seconds, come back a bit high, and mediate calmly — with a smile, no less.” And despite telling readers that she’s a responsible smoker, people still shared their very scathing reactions to her parenting choices.
