4. I am, and have always been, PRO-CHOICE. Pro choice on who someone can love and marry, pro-choice on what a woman can do with her own body, pro-choice on whether someone should or should not join the armed services, pro-choice on whether someone should or should not vaccinate, pro-choice on whether a business should or should not allow unvaccinated people through their doors, and pro-choice on the use of cannabis. With one caveat: The choice is for ADULTS. Not children. Parents need to be responsible for their children.

If a child is suffering from the ravages of chemo and radiation to treat cancer, then a parent SHOULD ABSOLUTELY consider providing THC to their child. It's a no-brainer.

A child should not be using ANY substances for recreational use. Not cannabis, not alcohol, mushrooms, peyote, kratom, oxycodone, LSD, or anything else. Things that are legal, and things that are not legal. None of them should be used recreationally by children. But that would change your narrative. You want to vilify one substance because kids can get their hands on it. But you want to dismiss all OTHER things kids already get their hands on, some of which are actually legal or unregulated, because they don't fit the neat little propaganda box you've chosen to hide yourself into. Probably while sipping your beer.
Thank you, a much better response than mine.
