Research is a wonderful thing :thumbsup: What the others have in common is good ol drug war rhetroic. They seem to think that what they are told is true.
The government spends a lot of cash trying to put fear into people lives.
The Dean at the School of Nursing said, " We should stick to the facts". She studied new parents and parents to be, intensively, who use(d) cannabis while pregnant. The government has tried to get her to be quiet but she refuses to put politics and policy aboue truth and science. Lucky us.
There are many many websites and literature that actually show us what happens to the fetus when the mother uses tobacco and or alcohol, heroin or meth. Ya just cant find those kind of disasters of those who used cannabis. They dont exist.
As for what you should or shouldnt think? I have all confidence that you will decide what is best for you whether it involves cannabis or not.
As a parent and a grand parent myself i would never ever jeopardize the life of my children/grand children, nor would i encourage other to do it.
I have been around pregnant women and children all my life and most have used cannabis to treat morning sickness and other complications due to pregnacy. ALL of their children are just fine, and the ones that have grown up are very healthy and bright young adults.
The Dean @ the School of Nursing studied Ganja using parents and non ganja using parents and discovered through research that Ganja using parents spent more time with their children than non ganja using parents and read to them more and had stronger maternal bonds with their kids than the non ganja using parents did. She spent 6 years doing the research and study.
Many good decent Americans, including conservatives, have unknowingly been suckered into what the government has spoonfed them to believe. Thats unfortunate. It was Geroge Bush sr. and Ronald Reagan who tried to have all research into the positive effects of cannabis removed from Libraries and scientific institutes, in the 80's. They put out "feelers" to see what the response would be and they were so ridiculed that they put the plans on hold..., for now.
Best of luck with whatever you decide.

Peace and Blessings,
