Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Her 15-year-old says he'll move out if she won't stop smoking.
  • What is she doing wrong?

    The one thing that is not clear from the letter is what she is doing that makes her an irresponsible parent. Is it simply that she is doing something illegal? The legality of medical marijuana is pretty hazy (pun intended) and depends on where she lives. In Los Angeles there about a hundred stores that openly sell marijuana for medical use. Even if she is breaking the law, I don't think that necessarily makes her a bad parent. Sometimes the law is wrong.
