Well, I don't care what anyone says, I always feel a little burnt out the day after smoking. I'm really relaxed and a hell of a ping pong player, but I just feel lethargic.

If your use is light, this might help your case with Mom. http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/abstract/166/7/887
Also, it does NOT mess with your memory (after you're straight -while you're stoned is another story- lol) No brain damage from pot. http://marijuana.researchtoday.net/archive/3/3664.htm
Some studies suggest that it may be neuroprotectant and cause the brain to grow new brain cells. If your Mom has any illnesses, run a search on it and cannabis abstract- she might find pot is good for what ails her!
Incidentally, I'm 59, did most of my 2nd time around in college stoned to the gills, wrote most of my papers stoned (but cleaned them up straight) and graduated with honors in my mid 50s. I tutored other students and was the Bio lab tech while I went to college and held a part-time job. No amotivational syndrome here! I work as a teacher's aide (be nice to that always smiling teacher's aide in your class, it might be me!) and am a MMJ user in California. Feel free to show your Mom this post or to pm me.

I just read the method section of the study, does anybody else think that the professors at Carleton university were being a bit vague when they described people who smoke five joints a week as a heavy user. I mean if you only smoked three a week but put a ounce in each..... Then you have to take into account the potency. I can imagine the only way to make this a fair test would be to monitor these people for months a controlled lab enviroment. Supplying the exact same strain with the same potency, but this is too impractical. If somebody offered to lock me up in a lab for months to smoke weed legally I'd be all for it but when I find out it would only be five or six spliffs a week I'd tell them where to go
