Mia Tyler, plus-size model and daughter of Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, says she believes that her mother encouraged drug use at an early age.

She says when she was eight-years old her mother would encourage her to eat hemp seeds.

Mia says of her unusual childhood,

“It was challenging. I grew up real fast. I saw things I might not normally see.  There were pot seeds around and I would pick them up. My mom thought it was funny if I ate them.”

Mia claims her days of substance abuse are now behind her.

“I lead a hard life early on so i can lead an early life now.”

Her mother, model Cyrinda Fox, died of brain cancer in 2002.
