Fewer teenagers along Washington and Colorado noticed cannabis is truly hazardous to their body, yet continuously using it as their past time. Legalizing of marijuana have two possible outcomes it may be used for good such as medical purposes and also might be abused.
According to UPI, the U.S National Institute on Drug Abuse funds the annual survey which they conducted questions for teenagers about their behavior and attitudes. Around 250,000 students in Washington and Colorado participated the conducted survey during the period of the question.
In Washington, the awareness of using marijuana decreased dramatically as it was legalized it falls by 14 percent and 16 percent among 8th and 10th graders. While in Colorado the effect of legalizing marijuana in their country was been muted.
The year 2012 the country of Washington and Colorado was the first two states who legalize the leisure use of cannabis then it was followed by the six states Alaska, Oregon, California, Maine, Massachusetts, and Nevada. Nevertheless, the conducted study did not prove that legalizing the leisure use of marijuana caused teens to find it less harmful or more likely to try it.
