What do you think of Marijuana?

Also to say the frontal lobe isn't important seems a bit disengenious when you consider that things like ambition and impulse control are controled there.

Heck, look what happened to Phinneus Gage. Nowhere near the same level, but it shows that the frontal lobe is quite important.

If you want to argue that ADHD isn't a problem, that's a whole different arguement from whether or not the Frontal Lobe is important.

When it comes to ADHD the inactivity in the frontal lobe isn't anything like that of marijuana use. The inactivity in the frontol lobe of ADHD is primarily located in only a small section of the frontal lobe.

 Theres a reason why my tone changed from internet lollery to serious.

I think arguments against the relatively harmless drugs are silly considering the extremely harmful drugs that cause SERIOUS damage and even some pharmaceutical drugs that also cause far more damage than marijuana. I find it so silly that I do not care to develop a serious well written argument to it. I write in a style that reflects a similar level of intelligence as what I am arguing against.

On the other hand when things got derailed onto the frontal lobe/ADD topic I felt the need to actually argue about it. I feel that people are horribly misinformed about it. Schools push the medications because it makes dealing with the kids easier, so people tend to only understand one side of the story.  The schools could also work with the kids and develop their strengths, but doing such would involve a large investment of time and resources. But it is done when parents fight the schools and make them create a 504 plan for the student.
