Underage and Drugs (split from: Under age people viewing what they should not)

em, nature gives us aspirin, too much of it will cause blood acidosis and cancer


nature gives us all sorts of things that aren't good for us, and all sorts of things that are drugs, just because you want to say "it's natural so it's good" well, how about you go out and chug some mercury? that's natural......

 

oh, give me a fucking break...

it's a mind altering substance. it's a DRUG.

 

its a drug its just used so much in today that people turn a blind eye to the fact its a drug to makeself feel better about what there doing dont even though i support the recrational smokeing of marijuana i think everyone should accept its a drug and it always will be noting less nothing more

 

its good. so get over it you 'im factually correct' people who think its factually wrong!

 

I beg to differ with both camps on this one... it is neither all bad or all good. It's a drug that can be used responsibly and be abused. Heavy use can damage lungs. I know this first hand. While it isn't physically addicting, one can develop a psychological addiction to it. A responsible attitude towards marijuana absolutely must involve acknowledging that it can have a down side and it isn't for everyone- much like alcohol (another drug) or some foods aren't for everyone.

 

agreed.

 

Actually, marijuana (cannabis) isn't a drug...it's a plant.

It's active constituents, like delta-9 tetrahydracannibidol, however, are drugs.

 

And as BassistReid said as well...its a drug, get over it. Caffienne and cigs are as well. I do believe knowledge is an important part to any choices. Blind consumerism/usage in any aspect isn't a good thing.

 

We're getting off topic debating definitions here, lets assume that for the rest of this thread the word drug will refer to any substance that modifies a chemical processes in your body. This would cover everything from: asprin to acid, from pot to roofies.

 

drugs are bad mmmmkay?!

 

I don't think it really matters what kids see and I don't believe in restriction.

 

I wish I could give you reputation points.

I say experiment away. I did.

I think things will be ok anyway. Even if tragedies happen, which is inevitable. Everything is as it should be.

YES MA'AM.

I agree. I went to jail for drinking two glasses of wine. I think alcohol is worse than pot, but at that level, it's more helpful than harmful.

I oppose all "drugs", even aspirin. Hmm... Aspirin is a drug, yet it does not alter your mind. I personally only consider pills and injections "drugs". There are lots of remedies unpill-like that you can take which are just as good, which many people might consider a "drug" because if it's remedial aspect. Uh...I'm done.

 

This is a good subject to debate, however getting harsh with people because they have a different view is rather childish, Everybody does have the right to there own opinion but Hating someone because they belive different than we do is totally uncool and uncalled for. Me, I dont belive in children viewing pornography. Children have no place in this what so ever. If you belive in children looking at pornagraphy, then you might as well be supporting child pornography and I think this is sick. I see where tallcoolone is coming from. He could have toned himself down a little bit in his post though too.

On another note there is a difference between nudity and pornography. Nudity shows a person in a natural nude pose, pornagraphy shows the person nude and involved in explicit sexual acts.

As an adult i have no problem with pornagraphy, I have hustler magazines and i have dvd's for viewing in the privacy of my bedroom, but it's not for kids to see.

 

Taking drugs is like opening a different life, awakening a new existence... live it wisely, you'll learn even more great things, fuck your life.. well .. you're no more. I guess you can apply this to any decision or action... if you make a good thing out of an action, it'll turn out good of course... but if not, you get the picture... I dont see why drugs though are getting too much attention like that? If youre a dumbass , youre a dumbass. if youre a dumbass, and you dont take drugs, well youll still be a dumbass with other things... everything is a tool, i can turn the most simplistic material like a fork, and be a dumabass by stabbing some one with it... and yet I can be a total dumbass with drugs by injecting myself with a dozen doses of heroin... or I can use good from the fork and eat food, as I can use good from drugs.. and smoke occasionally to attain new consciousness.

You cant blame drugs, all you can blame, is the human self

 

For the record, I generally agree with the majority opinion on this subject.... it's the parents responsibility to keep tabs on what their kids are up to, as well as educate them. If you're a good parent, your kids should trust you and keep you an active source of information. However, just to play devils advocate, I can definitely see where people would have problems with kids asking questions and getting answers of an illicit nature (ie: how to get oxycontin via fedex from overseas was one thread I saw, another was "desperate to see things").

Everyone on here has been pretty much talking about marijuana, but I think that's actually a bad example (as there's a very valid debate to the legalization of it), but what about heroin, angel dust, meth and so forth? How would you parents feel about educating your kids on the dangers of opiates, only to have them visit our board here and see the entire first page filled with threads from people who love it, instructions on the best ways get it, and how break it down so you can shoot it up "safely"?

Again, I think this is a good subject for debate, so had to play some devils advocate since so few others take an opposing stance...

 

Oh you're so great. Where are those damned reputation points?!

 

Yeah little children may get confused at seeing certain information and stimuli at times not ideal to thier development.... I must agree. And it probably a good idea for parents to try to help thier development, but also let them learn at the right time...

Yet I don't know the answers to these questions, shit... Who know what is good for the developing human brain... if we knew the answer, the world wouldn't be as it is.


But has anybody brought up the point that adults get confused to... just because somebody gets older and has a kid, doesn't make them exactly wise... I've met kids and dogs are that wiser then some adults. You know.

I mean and about dogs, they got it figured out...
wisdom of dogs, some of em... not the messed up ones mind you.

-don't bite the hand that feeds you
-eat and sleep
-its ok to do it doggie style and is not a sin
-there is one conciousness, god whatever you want to call it... I see it with my eyes... and no I don't think about it or question it... it is just reality for me... after all there is a reason why dog is backwards for god... dogs get that truth.
-feel the vibes of people
-love and be friendly to human kind without conditions
-its fun to play
-sniff butts


More wisers then half the adult population.
LETS ELECT A DOG FOR PRESIDENT!

 

Yes, see what your kids see and explain it to them best you can or help find the answer they seek.We are guides to our kids future lets not let them down!
I believe that a lot of people have lived sheltered lives and i think that is worse than knowing the truth!
