- MrFantastic 9y agoIdeally no one should smoke until they are 24-26 years old as their executive functions are still developing. You shouldn't be drinking either until 26 for the same reason. I've not seen any study showing damage from people that waited until 26 to consume cannabis.
- aphextron 9y agoStudies like this are trash because they imply causation. It doesn't matter what you control for, there can be an infinite number of factors causing usage of marijuana to be correlated with lower IQ scores.
