The right to protect your child
It is the right of all children to be raised in a drug free environment which includes freedom from the consequences of a parent that abuses Medical Marjiuana. States across the country have made Marjiuana legal to use but provide very little if any protection for a child that might have to endure a life that not only brings a harmful substance into their lives but the association of harmful people as well. A mother/father should not be allowed to use, purchase or hold Medical Marijuana while pregnant or in the presence of a small child. Consideration for Medical Marjuana should not be allowed if a person or persons residing in the same household as the child have at any point in their life been convicted of either a violent felony or felony drug charge. I am calling for the Federal Government to pass a legal precedent that protects a child from such acts of blatant disregard to a childs safety and protects the rights of the other parent to enforce this basic human right. I am also calling for the Federal Government to establish guidelines to help local law enforcement investigate and enforce restrictions on a parent that knowingly participates in such actions where he or she endangers a child due to Marijuana use combined with criminal behavior and or mental instability.
