Lets be careful here not to romanticize the herb. Some people are naturally addictive people, and can't maintain a successful or normal or functional life while being constantly inebriated on the lamb's breath collie. For example some people can't control themselves and spend as much money as ANY drug addict would, and that cuts into the bills, cuts into the family. If its things for the kids or an extra 1/4 oz I'd say hook the kids up and smoke a nick of that Arizona yo! But some folks don't have that sense of self-control. I've seen some people literally wreck ship over thousands and thousands of dollars in debt to pot-smoke, having as Cheech and Chong sang, "Up in smoke, that's where my money goes." Other folks are less than great parents when they are stoned, not attentive enough to the families needs. Some people are outright deatbeats when they smoke.
See the reality is what Bob Marley said, "When you smoke herb it reveals you to yourself." Well, some people are lazy, some people are selfish, some people are self-destructive. So realistically, these people at the least should smoke
less pot it not any at all

Me? My bills are paid, my responsibilities met, I'm putting aside Wesley Pipes toking it up out the big bong yo!
