Personally, I don't touch Marijuana and I don't want my kids to touch that at all. But kids just like to listen to their peers.
How does the board view about this?

marijuana is a gateway to icecream and brownies lol. No but seriously, I don't think it necessarily is a gateway drug but if someone who already has a propensity for addiction consumes marijuana then it might well be a gateway drug, however, alcohol will too, along with nicotine, etc. I'd worry more about the long term affects on the lungs of inhaling smoke. Sure, if marijuana is abused it's bad, but then again, anything that is abused becomes a negative. Moderation is the key, some people can do this, some can't. Those who can't do anything in moderation should not drink nor try drugs IMHO.
