And I mean, weed is legal in California. You can buy it safely and legally at local dispensaries, so no need to take risks with sketchy dealers.

well, you have to be 21 for buying it legally. most of the undergraduates will not be 21 until their junior year.

just donā€™t do it, is my advice.

Easy enough to ask a classmate. I mean, even high school students have no trouble getting alcohol, which also requires you be 21, so I hardly think this would be a barrier to an undergrad who wants to access weed. Easy to say donā€™t do it, and of course that would be ideal, but undergrads are gonna do what undergrads are gonna do and sometimes that includes alcohol, weed, sex, what have you. Better to focus on harm reduction, imo, since elimination is likely not realistic, even if we wish it were.

Iā€™m happy if I laid some of your worries to rest. Now you get to focus on all of the rest of the worries that come with having kidsā€¦
