As stated earlier, not every dope smoker goes on to be addicted to heroin.

However, every smack head doesn't start off on heroin.

They arrive at that deseperate situation via 'soft' drugs.

By encouraging a young relative, that it's ok to experiment with cannabis and ecstacy, you are playing Russian roulette.

You don't know if they are susceptible to addictive behaviour, and will be one of the many who do move on to harder drug addiction, and a lifetime of misery.
I take it you've not taken any thing - as you refuse to clarify this.

Your arguments are what they used at school. I had heroine once in the 80's and I didn't like it so I didn't do it. At school they used that argument to try and put us off drugs but I have not been addicted to any drug except tobacco which I packed in nearly 3 years ago now!

I never moved to harder drugs. I think the argument saying - starting on softer drugs leads to hard drugs is idiotic - just like anyone can get in a car and knock someone over or have an accident, being used to stop someone driving.
