As opposed to what? Children will always use drugs* before they are of age, or ones that are flat out illegal. This is just a fact of life that we have to get used to. Seriously, the best thing we can do is educate kids because as we all know they will form their own opinions about whether something is okay or not. If they base those opinions on real facts and other people's experiences then we have done the best we can.

* You can classify alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, etc. however you like. I'll use the term "drug" for these substances.

Kids are kids, and they're going to want to experiment. It doesnt matter what age. It'd rather they smoked some weed that isnt going to cause any damage than go out and get drunk and possibly get alcohol poisoning, and i'd rather they smoke cannabis than cigs which we know have over 60 cancer causing chemicals. As for the carciogens [sp?] if you blow the hit out after a natrual breath [3 seconds] you can expell almost all of them, while abosrbing all the phycoactive compounds... THC CBD CBN.
You're the first person I've heard mention the 3-second thing, but you know more than me so I will take your word on that one right now. If it is true then I wish it was more commonly known. As a kid people often tell others to hold in the smoke longer. The main thing that does is probably just give one a little head rush from holding one's breath, but as a kid it's easy to believe it. If it does cause harm then it's too bad that many tokers think holding it in longer will allow you to use more of the psychoactive ingredients in the smoke.

Things like that are why proper education is the most important thing we can do about the cannabis "problem", which some people think we have. I'd say for dangerous drugs such as cocaine this type of education is even more important. Instead we have gov'ts putting sand on weed. As if that is really going to stop anyone from getting high. At least we all agree they need to get their heads out of their asses!
