It is not, repeat, it is NOT OKAY to give kids drugs

Posted on March 11, 2007

Say whatever you want to about drug use. That’s your own opinion.

Just read this foolywang:

OSKALOOSA, Iowa.
An Oskaloosa woman is accused of giving cocaine to her 20-month-old son.

Alicia Boyd-Reynolds was arrested yesterday on charges of distribution of a controlled substance to a minor and neglect.Officials say she put cocaine on her baby’s tongue. The boy is in protective custody.

Boyd-Reynolds faces a court hearing on March 15th.

And you all might remember about a week ago this story about the guy who gave his 2 and 5 year old nephews weed:

And they don’t see what is wrong with it!!!!

My biggest thing about this is that it’s not these kids’ choice.

The guy in the weed case has said that the kids asked for it and that he gave it to them because it seemed safer than alcohol. Damn it, if the 5 year old wanted to go drive the car, or drink Drano and was whining and crying about it, would you let him?

Yeah, say what you will about they might have experienced it sooner or later, why not sooner? Blah blah blah. These aren’t, let’s say for the sake of argument, 10, 11 or 12 year olds with some sort of rational thought in their head. No, these are kids. Kids who depend on the adults to show them the right way. Who depend on adults to protect them.

Long term effects of these drugs on still developing minds… who knows? Who knows whether or not these kids have been damaged by all of this?

It just shows an ignorance in some people about the true effects of drugs and how it may not seem to be doing anything, but it does still have effects. I’m not going off on drug users, weed smokers, cocaine snorters, like I said, that’s your choice.

People!

Just stop! And! Think!

It may seem cute, it may seem funny, but it’s not.
