i'd avoid it at all costs, however i'm not going to delude myself into thinking that there are some behavioural issues, particularly with boys which cannot be swiftly resolved by a good ol fashioned spanking i was both stoned and watching porn at 14, smoking somewhat regularly by 16. i had unfettered dialup access on a desktop in my room. i spent 90% of my unsupervised time on wikipedia, learning about whatever i wanted whenever i felt like. i liked computer security and theoretical physics. my dad was a good guy that meant well, but he was fundamentally inept, a drunk, and the bad kind of autist where he just can't seem to manage to scrape himself together for any longer than a few months at a time so he just left me to my devices and i would spend months alone in summer time on the computer, doing internet things i became, and still am, addicted to learning. i'd spend 16 hours a day on weekends just reading about things, nearly all of it while stoned.
