You shouldnt smoke weed or do other drugs untill your in college. Developing minds arent something to mess with

yours must have REALLY gotten fucked with for you to end up so unintelligent. also the brain isn't done developing by the time you're in college, which solidifies my hunch that you aren't only brutal with language skills, but also useless in science. kill yourself

because we're confident all these 6 year olds doing hash are going to be completely normal when they grow up

I don't think anyone thinks these kids are gonna be 'normal' when they grow up. But some kids, like Charlotte Figi, may not even grow up if it weren't for cannabis. Furthermore, is anyone with either a debilitating disease or weird parents gonna really grow up to be that 'normal' anyways?

you're fucking retarded if you actually think that children should be encouraged to be doing drugs that will fuck with their memory cells, cause anxiety, initiate bipolar disorder and lack of motivation at such an important part of their life. Weed is a drug. People claim its a medicine but refuse to get rid of the THC out of it because who wants to deny getting high is fun.

I would never let my 9 year old kid walk around stoned all day long as a 'medicine'. I've smoked enough weed that it doesn't make my leg ache go away as much as it does cause me to question my sanity after being high for 200 days straight. There are better options out there and putting a child's mental future into question by giving them CBD with THC daily is not something I could ever do. Smoking weed did change me and it's not the miracle drug. Let the scientists figure this shit out before the hippies man the guns. Remember, cocaine was once seen as the best cure for the cough, so maybe we should wait it out until the studies come back

I agree with your earlier post.  You don't want to be smoking a lot of weed age 14-16.  Its fine to try it but wake and bakes and shit then is a bad idea.  Once you are close to being 18 then its a good time to start burning hard.

I agree, if there are other drugs that work, they should definitely be used, but what about the kids with epilepsy that nothing works for them? Kids that are having hundreds of seizures a week before weed and then only a few after?

And I mean, most strains that are given to kids are pretty damn low THC, Charlotte's Web (the strain designed for Charlotte Figi) has .5% THC and 17% CBD...I mean it is hard to say they aren't trying to take the THC out of some strains...

Once again, who cares about a child's mental future if they don't have a future at all and nothing else works for them?

I would say that I see more benefit in terms of the short term quality of life for a child using cannabis as part of their treatment than the long term. So far, most of whats discussed in the OP's video lies in the realm of "pseudoscience."

What is more of a concern to me is the legitimacy of the treatment against cancer, and how the patient doesn't have a real choice in their treatment and is unable to learn the facts. I am okay with rational adults dabbling in fringe remedies, but I'm not sure how I feel when its not the patient making those decisions.

yeah, i get that it can dull the pain and may make the quality of day to day life better, but someone link me to some scientific peer reviewed papers that show that THC has any sort of anti-carcinogenic/anti-tumor proliferation activity

It's better than them dying but like that bitter dude up higher in the thread said, weed will change you if you smoke it before you have fully matured. Anyone with firsthand experience can tell you that. I doubt these kids will function at 100% when they're older but its probably better than succumbing to the disease

also half the comments in here are from people who obviously didn't watch the documentary. they aren't SMOKING weed, they're taking highly concentrated oil pills. the scientific research hasn't been properly conducted yet because the fucking federal government still puts people in jail for this stuff, same as every other drug with negative stigma (mostly generated by pure bullshit propaganda). as the dude on the phone said, obviously more science needs to be conducted, but as it stands, only guys like these people whose CHILDREN HAVE CANCER are willing to do any research with it while federal law still outlaws such things.
from what i can see, this girl who's getting blitzed twice a day on weed pills looks better than any other child with leukemia i've ever seen. so either she doesn't have leukemia and her parents just like dosing the fuck out their kid for fun, or something about her treatment clearly puts her at an advantage to every other kid on chemo. personally, if i had a kid with cancer, i'd be willing to try this shit to keep them from looking/living like they're in a concentration camp.

It definitely doesnt help their case when the documentary just shows some white trash families and some guys who looks like he grows Afghan kush. If you want to be respected, get respectable people to be in it.

I think Krob is spot on, this isnt about your average healthy child, it's about kids who have cancer and were incredibly sickly before the weed.

On a side note, that bald guys wife is a downright milf
