Dear Mary: I use cannabis, I have my own house and a great career but I can’t visit my godson in Australia or get involved with the local GAA team with my child due to criminal convictions for personal amounts of cannabis — what can I do?

Shit on his bed
The GAA monitors your criminal record?
Relocate to a country with proper legislators
Does Australia have access to European Criminal Records?
If not, simply tick the box marked no when asked if you have a conviction.
I’d nearly blame the parents as much as the adult son in this scenario, why allow this nonsense for so long? Give him a couple of months living expenses and tell him he needs to move out and sort himself.
I’ve a cousin approaching 40 that has never lived away from home, never travelled, never done anything with his life. The family basically found a job for him to get him started and he couldn’t be bothered even turning up on time for it and got let go. I feel sorry for my Aunt but she isn’t blameless allowing it to go on either.
