[quote=Anonymous]I think pot (and all alcohol and drugs) should be legal, and only harmful actions sometimes associated with drug use should be and remain illegal. I'm very much against laws that control what people choose to do to or with their own bodies, and think the government should only step in with laws in order to protect one person from harming or infringing the rights of another person. HOWEVER, since it's currently illegal for teens and illegal federally, I cannot condone it no matter how I feel about the law.

So, that's what I tell my teens. I think it's a personal choice and should be an informed one. Based on my research and risk analysis I think it's a bad idea; here's some things to look into. Regardless of their personal decision I can't agree with or condone it until they're of legal age and I cannot condone it in a home I own due to the consequences on my job and therefore the rest of the family if I know of and allow illegal activity. Though I disagree with it, this isn't the sort of law I personally feel is immoral and gives me a moral obligation to break -- which is one of the two lines at which I've always told the kids it's okay to ignore the law.[/quote]
