The modern-day canna moms are looking to change the stigma of the stoner image. They want to be educated on the science behind cannabis (Hemp & Marijuana), and they are becoming connoisseurs of plant strains and different ways to consume.
Anyone who has raised children knows it is very demanding. Add a career or child with needs into the mix, and you have guaranteed no time for yourself. Most parents hit the ground running as soon as they wake up and don’t stop until the kids have gone to bed.
In the past, moms who preferred weed to wine would have to hide in a closet or blow smoke out of their windows to mask the overpowering smell of weed. But, more frightening is the fear of losing their children in states where it’s illegal. And for women of color, the fear is more significant since they grew up in a world where primarily black men were convicted and imprisoned because of marijuana possession.
Smokeless forms of cannabis brands are finding their niche with canna moms making it easier for them to unwind the way they want to and keep life a little lighter.
