Perhaps I'm mistaken, but judging by the contents of your group's website you feel the only way to "protect" the youth is a return to prohibition, regardless of the impact on upstanding rational adults.
I'm epileptic. I take medication twice a day and will do so for the rest of my life. Marijuana helps decrease my need to proscription substances, but I also enjoy the semi-euphoric effects. I feel a great amount of empathy for your unfortunate child, but given the following statement, I can't support you:
"But high-THC products have been shown to damage developing brains. This is the message that needs to get out."
That message was widely played prior to the passage of Amendment 64 and nobody disagrees with it. Children and minors should not have access to marijuana, but why do you want to punish adults for the sins of the children?
