Yes, kids get pot whether it's legal for adults or illegal for adults.

nothing good comes from a society that drugs its citizens....nothing...

it does no good to eat your veggies and avoid sugar if you're using mind altering drugs as well....

There's no reason to think they lie more now about using a legal-for-adults substance than they used to lie about using an illegal-for everybody substance. Rather the opposite, if anything.

CO no more "drugs its citizens" by allowing legal marijuana than your state drunkens its citizens by allowing legal alcohol.

Or maybe they get a good look at their pothead parents and vow never to end up like that.

My parents were both chain smokers. It’s why I never took up the habit.

I hear that. I note that since it was illegal for everyone when you wasted that time and money, its illegality did nothing to help you - it simply ensured that all said money went to criminals.

Education works - prohibition fails.

I’m glad I can go way back in time and remember when it was first offered to me and I said no —— and have never used/tried it.

2017 - 19.4%
2019 - 20.6%

Weed usage by yutes. “Not significant” but a 1.2% increase is an uptick in my book.
