According to you doctor Hurd's research, future generations may be paying a price for people ignoring medical opinion in 2017.


"drugs like marijuana can have profound effects on the adolescent brain, including effects that can even extend to the offspring of drug-users."

" We know that the prefrontal cortex, which mediates cognition, decision-making, and impulsivity, is still developing into the mid-20s, so it’s more vulnerable to drug use during adolescence."

"there are long-term developmental effects of marijuana and even cross-generational effects. So I feel that efforts to legalize marijuana are rushing, without significant research into this topic. My concern really is about the developing brain and marijuana exposure and there we don’t have enough research to say that this drug really is benign. It’s clearly not benign. "
