LEAFLY: The parent trap — How old drug laws punish families in legal cannabis states by Alexa Peters
This May 2, 2022 article features Tokeativity in the discussion of legalization and parenting.
Samantha Montanaro, co-founder of Tokeativity, a global feminist community for active cannabis consumers and business owners, believes keeping women from cannabis is more about not trusting women with their bodies and their babies, than anything else. She points to studies that shows cannabinoids occur naturally in breast milk, as supporting evidence.“
It really does make me so upset because it’s such a hard transition to begin with and moms are just looking for ways to feel better, to feel healthy, so they can show up for their baby,” Montanaro told Leafly. “It’s really hard to be a great mom when you’re in so much pain you can’t function or when you’re so out of whack with your hormones. That’s where I see a lot of benefit, especially with CBD.”
