A mum has hit back at critics who judged her after she admitted she smokes weed while her children are in bed.
Instagram star Nicole, also known as @mostlywatermama, says smoking marijuana is "no different to having a glass of wine".
It is believed the young mum is from Florida, US, where cannabis is legal with a medical marijuana card, reports The Mirror.
Taking to her Instagram, she told her 27,300 followers: "How you choose to unwind after bedtime is your business.
"The important thing is that you do. So if alcohol is your thing, then do you boo, but don't come at me for getting back to basics."
Nicole says instead of criticising her, fellow mums should be supporting people who choose to smoke the drug.
She added: "So can we all finally agree to stop bashing something that's been legalised in over half the country?
"Whether it's recreational or medicinal, we support it!"
While many did not agree with her decision to smoke weed, lots of followers backed Nicole's statement.
One woman said: "I know I'd prefer to bump into someone stoned having a giggle than someone drunk and aggressive."
Another added: "Would rather be with the cannabis mums than the winos."
Meanwhile Nicole isn't the only parent who has openly said she likes to smoke while her kids are at home.
Caitlin Fladager, 27, recently hit back at trolls who say you can't smoke weed when you have children.
The influencer, from Canada, often posts content about mental health, motherhood and weed.
As cannabis is legal in her country, she is not breaking any laws by smoking a joint.
But not everyone is supportive of the mum-of-two's decision who is open about her lifestyle.
In a recent post, she shared a clip where she defended her decision for having kids and smoking weed.
Posting to her 458,000 followers on Instagram, she asked: "Anyone else tired of hearing this?!"
