Omitting stuff and white lies are ok to protect young ears. They don't need to know all the details. ๐Ÿ˜‰

That's what I'm thinking...at the same time my son asked me the other day how do I get my rice paper rolls , rolled so tightly.

I told him it was luck and about 20 years of unrelated practice

I don't remember not knowing that my parents smoked weed.

Depends on how old your kids are IMO.

If they're infant, set them up for success and omit the details, but if they're teenagers then you could form a better bond and let them know they can talk to you openly when they experiment with making rice paper rolls.
