What's worse daddy stoned or daddy in jail. Daddy stoned wants to play hotwheels with their son. Having daddy ripped away forever by the same people that are suppose to protect you will have a lasting effect. What About The Children?

The boy is about to learn a hard lesson about the War on Marijuana
He is about to see first hand how his father will be locked away and his Mother is about to endure extreme financial hardships. When he gets alittle older, he will understand he was tricked into telling about his father growing a natural plant that is safer than beer. I am sure he will grow up despising a system that would trick a 7 year old and take away his father. It is just a plant.
