[quote=Anonymous]Wow, this thread went off the rails.
Look, pot isn't evil. However, leaving it lying around is really idiotic. If my bosses did that, I would mention it. I am a safety hawk. Boil the entire argument here down to pure safety issues.
As far as intoxicants and parents go, alcohol and pain killers are much more addictive and debilitating as far as functionality. Most people have those substances in their homes.

The judgement on both sides of this thread is really moralistic. Anyone yelling about a joint better be very certain that they are always going the perfect speed limit, etc- don't break a single law.

I live in a legal state. The tide is turning. Those of us who wish for non debilitating relief from chronic pain, insommia, and other issues without turning to pills with nasty side effects are grateful. This idea that all weed smokers are idiotic stoners really isn't true. The daycare example posted earlier is sad- but that is a very small segment of the population. Making pot legal cuts back on criminal activity and provides a medication and yes- an occasional escape- much safer than any other substance, legal or non legal. Animals in the wild have been observed to deliberately ingest plants that cause intoxication. Humans have been using forms of drinks and drugs since we started walking erect and having a sense of spirituality. I firmly believe this activity is only for mature adults that understand the ramifications, and not for growing minds or those with addictive personalities. Prescription drugs have caused much more grief and addiction than any baggie of weed.

I once found edibles and a weed infused foot rub at a home I was cleaning. Turns out it was being used for pain relief for the mom's dying father. You never know what folks are dealing with. I would implore these parents, OP, to put it in a safe place. Accidental ingestion by children is an ER visit.
