11. But it is indeed a psychadelic....
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 09:56 PM by Heyo
... in some aspects.

I know it's not dangerous, doesn't kill brain cells, etc.

I am not worried about any physiological danger.

But I think, even with a small amount, the experience may be very upsetting. The kid is too young to understand an altered state of consciousness in any form. More importantly.. the kid isn't making a choice, obviously... just, next thing they know.. "what the hell is goin' on here?"

It's the lesser degree of dosing someone with acid without their knowledge.

THC does not really relax you. Some people feel more relaxed when they smoke, I used to, because they enjoy the feeling and it helps them unwind. But it does raise heart rate and blood pressure, alter depth perception, and at a time when the kid is just learning the world and how it works, how to manipulate objects, etc.

Bad idea. Bad idea.
