I don't abuse marijuana.

I mean, sometimes I slap marijuana on the ass, but that's just foreplay.

"I've seen cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana and crack. I've never tried them before and don't want to and won't do it!"
--Meli, 11

Heheh, that's funny. I wanna party with this 11 year old.

"DON'T TAKE DRUGS!!! They're bad!!! If you take drugs then you will live on the street and smell really really bad!! You can die from drugs!!!"
--Nicole, 12

You heard that people. 12 year old Nicole says that if you do drugs you'll become smelly and live on streets. Why does this 12 year old sound a lot younger than the 11 year old? Maybe it's the drugs.

â??I just wanna say DONâ??T DO DRUGS!!!!!!! You may wanna try it to â??fit inâ?? or because of peer pressure or something, but itâ??s NOT WORTH IT!!!!! Believe me, I should know!!! My friends do and now they are failing in school, losing friends and no one wants to be around them. They act stupid and donâ??t care about anything but getting high. JUST DONâ??T DO DRUGS!!!!!! Be smart, donâ??t start!â?
--Molly

First, and foremost, I believe this has to be said.

I do not smoke weed to fit in. I smoke weed because it gets me high.


â??When I was about eight or nine, my across-the-street neighborâ??s dad threw a cigarette on the ground.â?
--Laura, 10

Laura doesn't have very many friends.

"I would NEVER EVER do drugs! Besides, I would have nightmares if I took drugs."
--Marielle, 8

I... don't see the connection. Maybe it's because I'm really high on drugs.

â??I have seen kids at my school smoking pot and stuff. Without meaning to, I sometimes stare at them in horror. I hate watching them throw their lives away with every puff. I strongly advise everyone to not try drugs. Never do them. You'll be making your life shorter. Drugs are horrible. Don't do them!â?
--Claire, 13

Wow, 13 and already so smart that she can look into the future! Or is she so stupid that she's being prejudice, judging someone based on lifestyle choices? No, she can definitely see the future. After all, it's reefer we're talking about here.

â??I go to an â??inner-cityâ?? school and marijuana is a big thing there. I do not use drugs because I've been on Principal's List all year and I don't want to change that.â?
--Shanetta

I have weed. You have celibacy. Tomato, monkey-wrench.

â??This one boy in my school smoked marijuana. I could smell it on him and he was one of my crushes!!â?
--Kristan, 10

Let him smoke you out. I bet he'll hold your hand. 10 years old and you know the distinctive smell of weed? Your parents are cool.

â??Never do drugs THEY R STUPID!!!â?
--Delaney

So is using letters to represent words. Go play in the street.

â??I have used marijuana and I felt sorry for it. I showed it to who I thought was my best friend. He went to tell the school vice-principal. My dad uses it for cancer. It helps him a little but he canâ??t stop using it.â?
--Sabrina, 13

Probably because it's... oh, I don't know... HELPING HIM? Don't feel sorry for marijuana, it doesn't need the pity. I mean, it's dried plant matter, I don't even think it can hear you.

â??What dose Drug Abuse mean? Why do people do them? Why do kids do them? Why???â?
--Molly, 10

It gets you really high.

I'm pissed, and you will be too Look at the misinfromation OUR tax dollars go the fund: http://pbskids.org/itsmylife/body/drugabuse/you_said_it.html They teach blatant lies in school because GOD FORBID people learn the truth. It's not just drugs, its every thing. U.S. History is a joke, English and Math are undervalued and underfunded. Why the hell do we allow our children to grow up in such ignorace? We really have become so lazy as a society, because it's easier for the propaganda machines to teach our children than Rating: 5
