It's almost like Santa Clause. Are those couple years of smiles on December 25 really worth watching your child break down into tears when she realizes that magic doesn't exist? Man, I would have rather known that from the beginning but maybe that's just me.

The running theme here seems to be that kids are stupid creatures that will believe anything. If someone had told me noodles grew on trees I would have kicked them in the shins and went back to watching Mr. Rogers. But again, perhaps that's just me.

A kid would'nt look at cannabis the same way as you, you have to remember they think on different wave lenghts to you. "why does daddy smoke cannabis if he dos'nt need it?" "if my dad does it shud i do it?" and alot of other shit, they don't think the same way as you,they think about toys and friends and having fun and playing games, not fucking cannabis. you should let the kid wait til he's older and just let him find out on his OWN, because he WILL, and even if your child does look at these D.A.R.E things and thinks "i dont want to try cannabis because it sounds bad" then so fucking what? you should respect his opionion and should'nt FORCE cannabis uppon your child.
