Since 2012, recreational or medical use of marijuana has been legalized in 36 states – meaning that the majority of Americans now have access to marijuana.
So it stands to reason that there are, in fact, parents who grow cannabis at home.
However, Dax Holt isn’t one of them.
Dax Holt is no stranger to the limelight. He’s famous for his work with TMZ, where he was an on-air correspondent for 11 years. He is also the co-founder of TrophySmack, a fantasy football trophy company.
But Dax’s daughter was about to make her dad famous for another reason.
One day when Dax went to fetch little Skylar from school, her teacher told him that his daughter had spilled the beans.
You see, his daughter had told her teacher that her dad grows a “lot of weed” at their home, which led to a pretty awkward conversation.
The confused dad was completely baffled as to why his daughter would say something like this.
Dax was determined to get to the bottom of it, so he decided to ask Skylar exactly what she meant. He asked her to explain herself and filmed the entire exchange.
He posted the video onto his Facebook page, where it ended up getting thousands of views.
But, as it turned out, Skylar technically wasn’t lying.
The video is hilarious. He begins by asking Skylar the burning question.
“What did you tell your teachers today?” the bemused dad asks his daughter.
“Weed is not good for you,” she replies.
“And why did you say that?” he asks.
“Because weed is stuff like grass. But it’s not, it’s weed,” she tells him.
“Did you tell them that we have a lot of weed in our house?” Dax asks. Skylar says yes, she did.
“It’s just a little bit, but it’s gonna grow a lot,” Skylar explains.
“And then what are we going to do with the weed?” Dax asks.
“We’re gonna get it out and throw it to another place,” Skylar innocently replies.
Her dad is completely incredulous, but he’s keeping up his “serious dad” tone while he interrogates her.
“Do you want to explain that a little bit,” the dad prompts. “Because then I got to your school. The teachers said ‘I heard you have a lot of weed at your house.’ Do you want to explain that?”
Skylar shakes her head. He decides to try a different tactic.
“Are we growing weed at our house?” he asks her, getting straight to the point.
Skylar says yes… LOTS of it.
“Do you want to show people what you’re talking about?” he asks her. “Wanna show us your weed?”
Skylar marches her dad outside to show him the “weed.” She points to the edge of the paving and pokes a few errant weeds coming up from the edge of the grass. “This is the weed. And this is the weed,” she explains, walking around the patio.
“That’s the weed you’re telling your teachers about?” Dax asks.
He can’t believe that this was what all the fuss was about!
Wow, kids really do say the darndest things. The video is pure comedy gold. Her dad probably didn’t think it was very funny at the time, but enough time has passed for him to laugh about it now.
