Regularly smoking cannabis can affect teenagers so severely that they end up three years behind their classmates in terms of brain development, a landmark study has found.

The results of the investigation, which involved almost 4,000 secondary school children in Canada, led researchers to conclude cannabis is more toxic for youngsters’ brains than alcohol.

Persistent use of the drug seriously affected basic reasoning skills – while it also had a disastrous effect on self-control, they found.

Pupils who smoked cannabis saw their results deteriorate when their use of the drug increased +2

Meanwhile, a separate study has found hard evidence that the main psychoactive compound in cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), causes changes in the brain that trigger schizophrenia.

In the high school study, researchers at Montreal University studied pupils from the time they entered the Canadian seventh grade – aged 12 or 13 years – for four years.

They regularly asked the young volunteers about their cannabis and alcohol use and put them through computer tests examining reasoning skills, short-term memory and self-control.

I'm 61, and totally know where your coming from. Have to agree with all you've said. Those of my peers that did pot regularly in high school were for the most part in dead end jobs at our 30 year reunion.....pot puts a major damper on enthusiasm to excel in life...…..

In fact the dumber a person is the higher the chance the person is a lefty.

If pot makes you stupid then the chance it the person is going to be a lefty is higher.

AND YET THE BORDERS IN CANADA ARE WIDE OPEN TO ILLITERATE THIRD WORLDERS DELIBERATELY LOWERING THE AVERAGE IQ.

TELL ME AGAIN WHY THEY CARE ABOUT COGNITIVE ABILITIES OF THEIR POPULATION?

IF THE GOVERNMENT OR MEDIA ARE CONCERNED ABOUT IT, THEN YOU CAN BET IT'S PROBABLY GOOD FOR YOU.

Fuckin potheads.

What I really worry about is the effect on dna and also infants and breast milk and developing brains with second hand smoke. I am concerned about the kids my grandkids will have to support. But perhaps by then we will all speak Chinese having allowed so many illegals in our ship sunk.

if it is true, they will pass this shit out during the school lunch.

They are trying so hard to get people dumber and dumber.
