then weed can be your nighttime "treat" after accomplishing a productive day of work/adulting.

@Known: "The other 10% just do weed occasionally or in the late evening when all their responsibilities are checked and they enjoy it for a few hours before sleeping." Correct! This is where most people under-30 screw-up. Weed becomes the focus of their life. They smoke too much and too often and ALWAYS before their most important responsibilities and tasks have been completed. EVERYONE should look at weed as the "ice-cream treat" at the end of the day when there is NO WORK left to accomplish.

Weed saps motivation. This might (or might not) be an issue at 30, 40 or 50+. This DEFINITELY is an issue for anyone UNDER 30 and TOTALLY DISASTROUS for anyone under 21. Use of weed in high school age kids prevents learning and impairs the ability to master critical life skills. I have personally witnessed 9th graders excess use of weed. It led to dropping out and made it nearly impossible to get/keep a job and to maintain relationships. 10 years later they snapped-out of the weed induced fog and realized they wrecked their life. It took many, many years to repair the damage and they lost out on so much good stuff life had to offer.
