There's no clinical reason for it to be considered a "stepping stone"

are where a lot of the mischief starts. Make sure the kids are kept

occupied with wholesome activities and reward them for success in

those endeavors. A bit of luck helps also.

That's a good thought, Wayne, but what if the kids parents are stoners?
