Anyway i would rather not put myself in that situation and that is why i would not turn someone on to weed.
i failed out of highschool, got fired from my job, and got arrested for pot all in a few months... i was letting weed control my life, but in no way do i blame my friends that turned me onto it. i blame myself for letting it go that far. i had other problems, and ws just trying to smoke away the pain. i dont think if you introduce someone to the magics of the plant, that you are responsible for how they treat it. if they decide to abuse it, then its their problem.. you cant blame yourself if your friend that you first started drinking with turns into an alcoholic. its the same thing with smoking. because of everything that happened in my life, i respect smoking pot alot more then before. i dont just see it as a thing to ease depression, or cover up my other problems with just getting stoned. but am respectful of it. when i do get stoned now, its more of a spiritual time.

Learning from my experiences, i have had the chance to teach a few people around me the joys of smoking. before i let them smoke, i told them about weed edicate, the dangers with the law, and told them how to make sure they dont get ripped off, and how to talk to people about it. then i gave them the choice from there. i think if you do get in the situation of teaching a fellow friend how to smoke properly, you should explain the consequenses if they do get busted with it.....
