Is It A Big Concearn
I don't know much about cannabis, apart from it being addictive, as nicotine is, and it can effect people in different ways, and can lead to harder drugs, I know its been discussed on here before, however my question is, if it is made legal in the near future, and parents smoke it around their children, ( and that may be happening already) can the children become addicted to it just from the smell of it around them. Thanks in advance.

Cannabis: the facts - NHS

Research shows that 10% of regular cannabis users become dependent on it. Your risk of getting addicted is higher if you start using it in your teens or use it every day. As with other addictive drugs, such as cocaine and heroin, you can develop a tolerance to cannabis. This means you need more to get the same effect.

Drugs were not passed around freely in the 40/50s like they are today. First to appear in our area was in the mid-60s and that was LSD on sugar lumps. There were several deaths then because those on it were hallucinating and throwing themselves through upstairs windows or off rooftops. Never heard of cannabis back then.
No guessing what drug these six first experienced. :-)

I had never heard of cannabis until the mid 60's. I recall my father coming home quite pleased with himself just before Christmas. He had been a dog handler but became a Temporary DC in CID after his dog was retired. He and his mate stopped a Canadian in Harrow Road W.9 carrying a large package. Everyone was carrying packages at the time it was just before Xmas. They found about 10kgs of cannabis inside. That amount was peanuts by today's standards but was,at the time, rated the largest drug haul in London. I recall asking my father what was cannabis and what's wrong with it?

It's like smokers. They know, by now, it's injurious but continue to smoke.
With all the so called celebrities dropping like flies from OD of drugs you can't tell me no one is aware of the dangers. Only this week a young Kennedy died from a OD. Even that may of been prescribed drugs but anyone taking illicit drugs with no known provenance are brain dead and do not deserve sympathy imo.

quite fun and untrue. Addiction - clearly heroin addiction and morphine 'exist' - lab rats etc - but then one finds with other drugs - mix and match and any sort will do. It may not be the drug ( well it is with morphine) but the addictive personality. I had a neighbour like that ( dead now) - they will snort anything - drano and furniture polish
Reefer madness - clearly some mad people smoke / snort drugs. And the drugs may have driven innocent hard working people MAD ! - alternatively they might have had problems in the first place and sought solace in drugs
I have NO idea how you sort this sort of thing out
