Description
Parents Opposed to Pot has been tracking cases of child abuse deaths related to parental/guardian marijuana use since 2012. The results are astounding - 105 deaths over a five-year period. (These deaths are not from scientific tracking, but the stories we found through social media sharing.) Marijuana does not make people mellow, as the industry would have you believe. The session will present the problem and why marijuana is a risk, as compared to other forms of substance abuse. The session will touch on the subject of pregnant mothers using and the many reasons for concern, and conclude that not addressing the issue is great cause for concern.
