We talked about drugs every grade in my day. A cop would come in and talk to the class room.
This is an accountability thing with the parents. It’s the same with alcohol and you don’t banned alcohol as a solution. You take better precautions to keep out of the kids hands. They need to start selling weed lock boxes.
Bullshit on what the doctor said. Won’t harm them at all
This is just a scare you from Big Pharma
Why are you calling poison control it’s marijuana get them some munchy I’ve never in my life heard of anybody overdosing or dying of marijuana And And maybe their parents should be better f****** parents and keep that s*** away from them
The dare took cannabis of the list for a gateway drug and put alcohol
This is just a fear the public of legal marijuana no one ever died of a marijuana overdose it’s impossible
You can actually OD on alcohol and that’s more readily available
We had DARE and talks with Parents Against Drunk Driving when I grew up and even police and firemen coming to my school all the time and giving talks about crime and safety when I grew up. I still remember everything they taught, and they even talked us through regarding cpr and walking safe in crosswalks. Bring those back.
Fake new propaganda cannabis is not poison but a healthy organic herb plant pharmaceuticals are poison
We had drug education when I was in grade school remember magruff
Keep the Cheetos and kook aid on hand.
Parenting or marijuana problem? Odds on poor parenting
I had to have a transgender and homosexual conversation with 3rd graders because of the new agendas and policy… So whatever. It’s just THC they just had a panic attack. No one ever died off THC, CBD, CBN. It just makes your heart race before the high levels out.
But the gateway is still legalized.. sooo uh… maybe hold them parents accountable…
Poison control? LoL. Just get some munchies.
dont eat 200mg first time drrrrrrr
WHY IS IT SHOCKING…THE CRACK EPIDEMIC SHOWED CHILDREN WHAT RIGHT VS WRONG WAS….no different today… YKU SHOUKD SHOW PRE-K WHAT IS RIGHT VS WRONG.. ..thats how u combat these drug dealers..
What’s up with the title saying poison mf took there child to a doctor just in case 😂 bro they stupid ash cannabis doesn’t kill people there hasn’t been one case of cannabis killing people stop the bs
Cannabis has killed no one while pharmaceuticals and alcohol have even the counter Tylenol is dangerous water is even dangerous while you can’t die or overdose on cannabis
Yeah. Some things Aren’t for Kids, Liberals!
This is a matter of accountability from parents/adults. If a child brought a gun to school who’s fault is it? It would be the fault of the parent or whoever allowed access to it.
Vigilant parenting and proper securement of drugs within the household would prevent this.
What’s most likely here is that the kids saw candy and wanted to eat it lol. This is why it should be kept out of sight and out of mind.
Y have to be 21 or older to get anything out of a dispensarie of the street they don’t care legalize cannabis worldwide and they will not get it problems solved
Quit trying to scare the public over marijuana it’s a plant given by God for medicine
America
What you think is going to happen, when whoever makes it appetizing, looking tasty, and or just like plain "candy"? Can almost guarantee if it looked like 🥦, green beans, squash, pinto beans, Lima beans, they wouldn’t touch it, or go near it. Most kids even teenagers, don’t eat/taste anything good for them. JS…
(I don’t believe kids should be doing drugs recreationally or on accident)
I want to know exactly what effect it’s having on the kids that they are reporting on, and what are they worried about in needing to send kids to the ER if it’s "just a precaution" and not an actual emergency? It sounds like a this story is just blowing everything out of proportion, it’s not giving out any information other than kids ate marijuana gummies and teachers are freaking out and sending kids to the ER as a "precaution". Precaution to what???
This Is one of those myths that won’t die about cannabis.
Ummmmm its not cannabis its Tik tok lmfao you all give these kids CELLPHONES when they’re barely 7-8, and expect them not to be exposed to all this negative.
Its TIK Tok To blame…. Not cannabis.
"Each year in the United States, more than 95,000 people die from alcohol-related causes, making it the third leading preventable cause of death in our country.
The first is tobacco, and the second is poor diet and physical inactivity." — CDC
