RE: 🌱Pokeweed🌱-Your Best Friend or Worst Nightmare-With a Bonus Traditional Southern American Recipe

Right, it's easier to tell kids something is poisonous if they don't want you messing with it. My mom did the same thing. If they told you it was edible, you'd try to eat the berries. If you chewed the seed, you'd get severely sick.

It's true. Sometimes it's easier just to say it's poisonous than to explain it in details... But I would definitely be happier if the parents all around the world would have more time & patience for their children!

I 100% agree. My mother took the lazy way out too and now decades later I'm finding out it was mostly lies.

I would have been more independent if the truth was explained to me.

Of course! Most of the children in the world were raised in small lies unfortunately. Lucky & blessed are those who were raised in truth. But I think that situation has changed & now more people are teaching their children the right way... Or at least I hope so.
