Drug tests are easy to pass, and ironically people who have never done any drugs and are worried about what you're going to pop out have kids with problems of their own.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

That you would be narcissistic enough to ignore that you could intentionally cause a child to be schizophrenic and force that child to deal with that the rest of it's life...doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Coming from someone who passes the buck about his own actions every minute of every day... that's still pretty epic shithead behavior, though.

The current study homed in on specific genes, notably one called Discs-Large Associated Protein 2, or DLGAP2. This gene is involved in transmitting neuron signals in the brain and has been strongly implicated in autism, as well as schizophrenia and post-traumatic stress disorder. Now that they mention it, I know two guys that smoked pot a lot and they both have a schizophrenic kid. One has TWO. Yeah, the planet REALLY IS going to be all autistic soon. I think I just changed my mind about how "harmless" Mary Jane is. In one study researchers at Washington State University in Pullman showed rat pups born to mothers exposed to high amounts of cannabis vapor during pregnancy had trouble with cognitive flexibility. Twice a day the scientists filled the pregnant rats’ containers with marijuana vapor from an e-cigarette, elevating levels of the psychoactive chemical THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) in the rats’ blood to roughly the human equivalent of smoking a joint. After the pups grew up the researchers trained them on a task that measured their ability to think flexibly and learn new rules. The young rats first learned to follow a light cue to push one of two levers in order to receive a sugary treat. The next day, pushing only the left lever would deliver the reward, regardless of which side the light had been on. The rats exposed to cannabis in utero learned the first rule (following the light cue) without a problem, but they took significantly longer to learn the new rule (pushing the left lever) than did rats not exposed to the drug. The cannabis-exposed rats also made many more mistakes on the second day. They would respond correctly for a couple rounds, making it seem like they knew the new rule, but then they would press the wrong lever again. “It was like something wasn’t really clicking with them,” says Ryan McLaughlin https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-marijuana-harms-a-developing-babys-brain/

That wasn't fair to your daughter who is disadvantaged, is it?

That wasn't fair to your daughter who is disadvantaged, is it? Um, nice try, but NO... we did not know we had any genetic issues other than seasonal allergies when we got married. He wasn't diagnosed with ASD until several years after she was born, and I had never even heard the term Dyspraxic before 2009. The ASD actually isn't the problem, it was being raised by Christofascist Narcissistic parents that he needs the pills for. Narcissists can ruin the lives of those around them, no joke. As for being "disadvantaged" she is far less so than YOU. She's HAD treatment and assistance, and is still a good 20 IQ points ahead of you. I have every confidence she'll do just fine, thanks
