It is medicine. Anybody unfortunate enough to be born into this horrible world deserves to medicate themselves with herbs as soon as they can hold their head up.
It is very difficult, logically, to say that MJ is beneficial while at the same time denying it to certain people. If I were a parent I would only disallow it so as to pretect my children from the law, but I would explain to them that the laws are oppresive and counterproductive to true spiritual health.
If you think about it it doesnt even matter. How often do you see kids under the age of 21 drinkin? How often do you see kids under the age of 18 smokin? All the time I'm sure. It doesnt matter, if they want it they will find ways to get it.
anyone who answered "16" is too young to be here an should be banned.
Dive:stoned:
I am not sure diving while stoned is a good sport to promote to the youngsters...but it could be perfectly safe. I have never tried it, but it sounds irresponsible.Quote:

This makes them believe that it is bad, and kids like to do what they are not allowed to do.
We all know that Marijuana is not only not bad, but is quite beneficial, and even essential to a healthy participation in the world. That is the message we should be sending to the youth. Again, smokers cannot rally to legalization while demonizing our own cause.
Kids would be a lot more mature if their parents were more mature. And to you kids: Your parents would be a lot more open and trusting if you were more open responsible. Believe me, there are actually parents and children out there with good relationships that have discussions around the dinner table and do not simply zone out to the television. They are rare, but out there and this should be our ideal.
i've been smoking for almost 3 months i started at age 12 but i've had my 13th-day since so i'd say 12 or 13 at the earliest anything below that is way 2 young i think like that 1 dude who started ciggarettes at 8 yrs old im like wtf ur lungs r gonna be fucked by the time u graduate but hey its ur life do w/e the fuck u want
16 doesnt sound too bad. I am 23, but I think a 16yr old should be allowed..
oh really:wtf: Arent ya suppose to be at least 18 to be a member here.:thumbsup:Quote:

OMG
i mean hell it won't stop underage smoking... and let's be honest even though i started smoking when i was 11, i have watched it's affect on me, friends, and now that i'm older, friend's kids, ect... and while everyone is different i think it shouldn't be encouraged to children, which is what under 21 is... i mean its all shades of grey...
