IOW If you must smoke weed or vape THC, wait until you are 25 and your brain is fully formed.

We've known this for years -- since before they started legalizing weed. That stuff was outlawed for very good reasons.

Legalizing marijuana is a terrible idea

Dirty habit practiced

Wonder how many of the have parents that were flower power stoners in the 60’s & 70’s.

Kids learn more by their parents actions then any other way.

The whole "California Sober" nonsense is just a pitch to sell the stuff to Gen Dumb.

I saw the mental deterioration in high school classrooms in MONTHS not anything like years.

Pot heads disagree. but you can’t trust what they say because their minds are stunted. So, don’t listen to pot heads.

My nephew was 14 years old when he started smoking pot. His brain never matured past that age. He never took responsibility for his life and he acted like a dumb ass kid up to time he died at 50. Marijuana is not a benign drug, it’s a venomous snake in the grass and it will bite.

The other side effect nobody talks about is gynecomastia, aka “man boobs”. Caused by plant estrogen.

Since alcohol can cause brain damage (my oldest sister was diagnosed with alcohol-induced dementia), why would anyone think that the regular use of marijuana, or other drugs, wouldn’t cause brain damage too?

If someone started smoking it in 1964 who was so bright they needed something to shade the abundant stupidity around them, wouldn’t it be okay to smoke a little every once in awhile?

Study suggests? Hasn’t this been definitively proven yet?

Pretty much everyone I knew who smoked pot in high school ended up messed up. We were the class of 1980...

Steve A, whose dad owned a car dealership, has done two stints in prison and had substance abuse issues his whole life. He is gone.

Heather B, who came from a wealthy family, is a total loon/cat lady who has been married four times, is waaaaay overweight, and is estranged from her children and grandchildren.

Randy C came from a very Catholic working class family. He was super talented and played a mean sax. Did some studio work with Spyrogyra. Couldn’t hold onto a woman and never married. Died alone at 59 from what was explained as “ongoing mental and physical health issues.”

I could go on, but you get the point.

Now, the big question is, were they messed up and so they smoked pot, or did smoking pot mess them up? Chicken...egg...
