With a look at Culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with a point.

It's 2024, but there's still life lessons to be learned from TV's Blossom.

Recently on her podcast, Myambiolic described how she talks to her kids about drugs and alcohol.

Quote, while alcohol and weed may not land you in an overdose situation in the hospital,

they are the most insidious things because our media tells us that they're good, smart,

wise, and we're given every excuse to numb.

I don't care if you tell me weeds not addictive, not feeling pain is addictive."

In quote, see for a generation raised on glowing screens, 24-hour news cycle, and millions of other

distractions, mentally checking out can be intoxicating. That's why teenage marijuana use is

at its highest in 30 years, leading to an increase in mental health

issues like paranoia and hallucinations. We have to help the next generation know

that it's normal to feel bad or bored sometimes.

And numbness, without only delays the pain.
