For those looking to find proof that marijuana has gone completely mainstream, the search appears to be over. Move over soccer moms, marijuana moms are here to stay.<\/p>\n

A host of celebrities<\/a>, athletes<\/a> and musicians have come out in favor of marijuana legalization. Jack in the Box put marijuana-themed items on the menu. Television is launching shows about the legalization of weed.<\/p>\n

But this? This is something different. This is Moms.<\/p>\n

Moms using marijuana.<\/p>\n

Marijuana Moms Don’t Wine<\/h2>\n

\u201cWine Mom\u201d has been a meme for a long time. As explained here<\/a>, \u201cwine mom\u201d covers a whole culture where it\u2019s socially acceptable to drink alcohol to relieve stress and not unexpected to sometimes drink a bit too much alcohol.<\/p>\n

But in a long article<\/a> that no doubt will lead to many other similar articles in the media, The Atlantic focused on what people in states where marijuana is legal have known all along: parents use marijuana.<\/p>\n

This latest wave about parents and marijuana seems to have gotten its start with an article in High Times. The excellent article<\/a> highlighted the use of marijuana by Moms for relaxation and to deal with stress, anxiety and postpartum depression.<\/p>\n

It is essentially positioned as a much healthier alternative to \u201cprescription drugs and glasses of wine.\u201d People everywhere seem to acknowledge that it\u2019s OK to drink within reason if you\u2019re a Mom, but one woman admitted, \u201cI was drinking a lot\u2014and I\u2019m not a drinker, really. I needed a cocktail every night, and that\u2019s not who I am.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enter cannabis. Apparently, this is a story that is repeating itself rapidly in states where marijuana use is legal.<\/p>\n

Sublingual Spray<\/h3>\n

The popularity of cannabis among moms (and, presumably, dads) has grown to the point where a website is now dedicated to the issue. The CEO of cannabis company Papa and Barkley<\/a> told the Atlantic he\u2019s also seen Facebook pages and parenting-related cannabis workshops pop up in recent months.<\/p>\n

One appeal: marijuana is known to help with both depression and nausea.<\/p>\n

Many of the most popular uses of marijuana does not involve smoking. They include sublingual spray, edibles and either low-dose products or CBD products <\/a>that do not cause the \u201chigh\u201d feeling. These can include oils, tinctures and drinks.<\/p>\n

Popular party planner Katie Partlow with the cannabis event company Little Face<\/a> plans to throw a cannabis party for moms called the \u201cmommy\u2019s marijuana picnic.\u201d<\/p>\n

The cool party planner, the media and bloggers such as The Stoner Mom<\/a> have spoken. Marijuana Moms is a thing. Now it\u2019s just a matter of picking out the right product.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
