INTRODUCING A REALLY HIGH-TAR CIGARETTE.
Quite a few people think that smoking pot is less likely to cause cancer than a regular cigarette. You may have even heard some parents say they’d rather their kids smoked a little pot than get hooked on cigarettes.
Wrong, and wrong again.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, one joint can deliver four times as much cancer causing tar as one cigarette. So if your kids smoke a joint, their lungs are being filled by far more carcinogens than if they smoked a cigarette.
That’s just one of the many problems with pot. But kids whose parents get involved with them are far less likely to do drugs. To learn more, call 1-800-788-2800 or come to the web site.
