More parents talking to kids about the dangers of pot
Posted: 06/18/2012
Parents in Colorado are finding conversations with their kids about drugs to be more prevalent.
Michael Jolton says since Colorado legalized medical marijuana, he's had to stop talking about kid stuff and begin discussing the warnings of drugs.
Jolton says he is having to explain billboards and other public ads.
Colorado and Washington state have measures on the ballot that would legalize recreational use of marijuana as well.
