Pot would remain illegal for kids. Since kids have been reporting for years that they can get pot (illegal for all) more easily than cigarettes or beer (legal for adults), it appears that the best way to keep a drug out of kids' hands is to legalize it for adults - which gives sellers an incentive to restrict their sales to adults.
