LSD, Cocaine, Heroin, PCP (God only knows what they will be harping about in 20 yrs) is OFF LIMITS to my kids. Permanently.
As a parent and guardian that is your right. Yet, what happens when your "kids" grow up into functional, self determining adults? Will you still control their every action? Will they allow you to do so or will they become independent adults instead of "perpetual kids"?
And I've yet to see anyone advocating "kids" usage anyway. Actually, "kids" have access to illegal drugs now, despite their currently being "illegal". It seems like legalization, or decriminalization, would protect your kids better than what currently occurs today.

Kids have an easier access to illegal drugs, due to the fact that there is no regulation on such substances. Legalizing and controlling the flow of all drugs would go a long way towards keeping them away from kids.

But of course, the "drug warriors" don't want to admit this fact.

Did you intend to engage in conversation or just make your comment and leave? If your intent was to make the comment and leave with no further conversation why did you even bother making your comment in the first place?
