The girl was treated and released from the hospital.

Uh, what kind of treatment would that be?

[eddie willers]

It's been 25 years for me, but "hash" brownies will kick your ass.

Breakfast of Champions at an all day, outdoor Bluegrass Festival.

[eddie willers]

Uh, what kind of treatment would that be?

My guess is Cheetos and Butter Pecan Ice Cream.

That baby should have never had access to drugs and wouldn't have if she was being taken care of properly.

I agree, however, million of kids have ready access to liquor kept in the home, and generally it's not under lock and key. Unlike pot, alcohol can readily kill a kid.

[MadManDan]

Depends on how good the weed is.

Putting the weed in brownies is equivilent of storing your liquor in a pop bottle, or mixed with the jug of Kool-Ade.

It isn't the possession that is the problem; it is the "storage" method that is the problem here.

Reminds me of when my dad put Ex-Lax in the Hershey's wrapper, then TOLD his Bedouin laborers that it was "his medicine" and that it WOULD make them sick if they stole & ate it. He never had his candy bars stolen from his lunchbox again!

You clearly haven't tasted some of the premixed liquor in beer sized bottles with the cool beach pictures on them. They taste like KoolAid too. No joke. A kid could drink 3 of them and be wasted.

[RWCon]

I knew that someone would have to whine about the unfairness.

[WasDougsLamb]

Oh, I know how easy it is these days for kids, however,a five year old opening a bottle of alcohol and liking the taste is a bit different than finding and eating a chocolate brownie laced with a drug.

[Black Tooth]

You've obviously never tasted the new pina colada, with the cool beach pictures on them. Tastes like real nice punch. No alcohol taste at all. They're dangerous. HA!

[WasDougsLamb]

No, I haven't. Nor am I as irresponsible as the parents who leave that out for 5 year olds to get into.

[Black Tooth]

These alcohol pops are supposed to be cold, kept in the fridge. That's why I said, this stuff is laying around in millions fridges. And I am sure, people don't put locks on their fridges.

Know what I mean?

[WasDougsLamb]

Yeah. Ok. My original post was about this particular case involving pot. Alcohol is another debate that I am not interested in getting into. I do not drink and my family doesn't. I was referring to the child in this particular thread who ingested pot by eating a brownie. Lets just agree to disagree . Have a nice evening.
