Whole other story today. Pot will soon be legal everywhere. For many addiction prone kids this will be as bad as legal alcohol, but it is what it is.


Right know, in 2016, you are unlikely to get much for smoking pot. Every state sees the legalization on the wall.


All drugs are a danger if you have addiction in your family DNA. The big drug out here that scares the parents is heroin. Our small middle class town is now known as "lille Milwaukee" (this is not meant to be a compliment). Dealers come up here to sell to our kids because our kids have more money and they charge more. Our one high school here is infested. When my daughter did drugs, heroin was not up here.


Hub and I plan to move to a different town when he retires. At least our kids are out if high school. Sonic is repelled by all drugs plus cigarettes. Jumper is in La Crosse, a much nicer town, and she wants to be in criminal justice. She even thinks pot is "stupid."


Drug wise we feel safe but it sure has changed since we moved here from Illinois. Not that I think the Chicago burbs of Illinois are much better. You can run, but you cant hide.
