Sweet, I'm gonna go shag every woman in sight and leave all the kids on everyone elses doorsteps to take care of for me while I go buy and SUV and chat with the guys on my cell phone while I don't use my turn signals
So can I, he can be failing school cause he's too busy eating "Munchies" after getting off a high to go to class.
Yeah, or they could be eating over the counter cold pills like candy. That seems to be the trend for kids who want to get high but cant afford/cant find pot these days.

How would that help? Alcohol is legal, and I would be appalled to see a 7th grade vodka party. Yeah, I know alcohol is illegal for minors, but do you want to legalize Marijuana for minors too?Originally posted by: zimu
wow thats ridiculous. maybe they should just legalize that crap
eh.. same would have been said with smokes or alcohol...

Vic, you missed his point. If it were legalized it WOULDN'T be different than alcohol. I don't want to see 7th graders drinking alcohol either!
wtf man, your momma didnt love you did she? get off parents already. im sure you never did anything behind your parents back that they were completely unaware of, did you?
Laws don't stop 13 year olds from doing much of anything. Only 13 years of prior good parenting and a smart choice made by the 13yo will do that.
They were doing that stuff and worse when I was in 7th grade, and I lived out in the middle of nowhere. I think they are just fooling themselves with the "younger and younger" thing.

Well, neither do I. But making marijuana illegal has done NOTHING to stop 7th graders from using it. ScottyB is (for once) completely correct. This problem is nothing new. I knew kids who were smoking weed when I was in the 7th grade in the early 80s, and my older brothers knew kids who were doing it when they were in the 7th grade in the early 70s.
If anything, regulated legalization (similar to alcohol) would probably do more to help this problem than the outright prohibition that we have now.
Whoa whoa whoa now....easy there.
My words have been taken out of context. My point isn't "drugs are bad", it's "even if you're for legalization of pot, would you want your 13 year old smoking it?" To this, everyone agrees that no, that would not be an ideal situation. Thus, legal or not, it's good we stop children from using such substances.
Vic, I don't appreciate being called a troll when, in fact, I am contributing a valid opinion to this thread. Those who said "legalize it" are being more troll-esk than I.
Hopefully it's clear then: legal or not, 13 year olds should not partake in drug usage.

My gosh, the cops take really long to find out. At high school, I mean, just walk around and you can easily spot kids discussing it or you can pretty much guess which one has some on him, not that hard.
What's the big deal? I got high now and then when I was that age, and low and behold I'm an educated and employeed adult who pays his taxes and is neither a drug addict nor criminal. In a hundred years I'm sure our granchildren will look back at the Victorianesque culture of our era, from their perspective, and scratch their heads.
Well I think the point a lot of people make is that many people keep using drugs and don't live to be as successful as you. Of course it's possible to live a great life when stoned half of the time, just not as likely.
