The law says that possession is illegal. Giving or selling it is illegal. Giving or selling it to a minor carries additional criminal penalties. And you being around (especially if living with) someone who gets convicted of something like this could impact YOU in that it opens the door for the system to look at YOU for possible endangerment of YOUR child.

Kids and drugs don't mix; so it may be time to make some hard decisions, before a court starts making some on behalf of the child which might remove your child from your care. I'm not saying that it is PROBABLE, only that it is POSSIBLE, and that children have been removed for less. That's a danger best avoided ASAP.

I tend to agree. You need to get out the situation. Have you browsed through the information in LawInfo's Free Legal Resource Center to learn more about your issue yet? See: http://www.lawinfo.com/consumer.html. You can certainly try to speak to a lawyer to determine what legal options may be available. In the meantime, you may be able to learn more on your own. Search the "Free Legal Resources" tab, or browse the Consumer Resources. Good luck.
