How young is too young?

Well, I myself smoked for the first time when I was 16 (about a month before my 17th birthday) and I was already a senior in high school.

I would like to think that by the time a kid has been in high school for a year or two that they would choose to experiment with weed, or other drugs, only after giving it plenty of thought. But as we all know most young kids (and sometimes some of us still =D) usually don't think things through before they do something.
 
I think any age over 5 means they can "TRY IT". But it shouldnt be more than once a month til they turn like, 10-12. Then I suppose it can go to once every week or so. And although I think overall its not good to smoke weed everyday at like any age, because of tolerance issues and health effects, once you turn 15-16, that should be more of an option, and 1-3 times a week should be totally acceptable.
 
i don;t think that 13 is to young to be smoking i started when i was 12 in the 6th grade so i don't think it i that young.
 
Dunno how young is too young....guess it depends on the person. I mean, there's the whole thing of physical maturity to consider, but psychologically I'd say anytime between the age of about 14 to whenever.

I mean...I'm 17 now (finally!) and have been smoking since the age of 15, not to get wasted, just cos I love it <3

I've smoked with kids who are 14 and 15 who seem so much older, physically and mentally.

But then I've smoked with people who are maybe 5 or 10 years older than me who have acted like total arses and can't deal with it....depends on how the person is.

All depends on how you can deal with it.
 
I personally think 13 is far too young. I tried it at about 15, and then didnt try again till I was about 17. I think 17-18 is a good age because you're definately able to make a much more informed decision (most of the time).
 
I started smoking weed about 2 months before my 15th birthday, I'm almost 19 now and have only ever stopped toking for one 6 month break (fucking girl friend made me).

I can't say that I regret it because at the time it was great and I have friends like brothers because we've smoked from the same age. But I think 14 is too young, my head is soo fucked from it but I like who I am (kinda) and I have weed to thank for it..... it's never too young (j/k), I think as soon as you turn 15 it's cool to toke on, no worries.
 
enuf with the shit, as soon as the person believes they are mature to look into other substances...

i mean, quite a large percentage are peer pressure and even some who do it to be cool..

personally i started at 11, and its done me good and bad.... but its pretty fair..
 
Yeah, I also can't say I don't regret smoking at a young age. It gave me something to do and look forward to instead of just drinking then. Before my friends and me started smoking, we would drink like every few days during a week and on Friday night and Saturday night. We would go out, get drunk, and then roll houses or something like that. And it sucked because 80% of the time, the cops showed, and we had to run from them drunk, which sucked.

But when we started smoking, we just went out to our favorite place smoking or in someone's basement and just got high and listened to music, watched TV, play games, or just talked. We didn't get in much trouble or anything.
 
I started when i was 13... but im also much more mature... physically and mentally. I started cuz i was around other people that did it all the time... and i thought it would be cool to try and see what it was like... they never asked me to do it so it wasnt peer pressure... i was the one that asked if i could smoke with them.... fell in love with her from the first hit.
 
i'd say before college is too young. around 18 is perfect because i think the body/brain have stopped growing at this point. but i don't see any harm in moderate use at an early age.
 
I started when I was 14. Middle of my freshman year of highschool. Where I live, pretty much everyone starts in the beginning of high school because there really isn't that much to do at all here when you can't drive. I'm still only 15(i'll be 16 next week although I feel and look like i'm turning 17), and I've been smoking about once a week during the school year and a few times a week during the summer. For the 6 months-year it was no more than twice a month though.
 
i started at 14, did it on and off a couple of months. turned 15, summer came, nothing to do...smoke a joint! almost been daily, the reason being, it was free. once school starts I will cut back to maybe 4-5 times a month max.
 
Started half way through grade 11, so maybe just over 16, ive never smoked every day in a 7 day period, but have smoked an 1/8th in a night. Been about 3 months since i've smoked (finishing high school, messing with my grades) and wont for the next few weeks (till school holidays)

Personally, I wouldnt have wanted to start any sooner than I did
 
I was smoking from 15 and heavily the past two years, i'm 18.

I think it was ok when i started, would have missed out on so many things.Good and bad.
 
Ok am i the only one who started hella young???? like 10/11 anyone start arround there? well its all bout mentality if hommie is still young @ mind then, no greens 4 him. But if he is a mature lil 13yr. ol kid then why stop him. Shit trees is prolly one of da few thingz dat kept my ass sane yo.

I'm 15, and I first tried pot last summer. I bought two grams and smoked it everyday until it ran out (Which amounted to three smoking sessions). I haven't smoked since, yet I'd like to. I'm not too concerend about getting addicted, since pot comes sparingly for me, as well as the fact that I rarely have a good oportunity to smoke. But I also value sobrietry. Sure, getting baked now and then is fun, but I cherish the things I do when I'm sober, and would never want to have pot replace it. Smoking everyday isn't even a temptation for me.
