My kids (including the grown ones) are dope, tobacco, and alcohol free. Although there are no guarantees in life, I am reasonably confident my children will never use drugs (or alcohol). I pray night and day they will remain clean.
Methamphetamine is a truly vicious and terrible drug. I have acquaintances whose children are hooked on meth, and the impact on the kids and their families is severe beyond belief.
So when they find out that what you told them about marijuana was wrong... they'll assume that everything else you told them was right?

At least that's what they've told you. It's good that you believe them. Trust is important. Honestly, I hope you're right.

Of course you do, and I would hope that you're right. Its important to realize however that their decisions to use or not use are out of your hands now.

No disagreement there. Meth is nasty and vicious. Presumably though, those kids were brought up being told all the same right things, and meth is just as illegal for them as it is for your kids, yet they still went there.
Drugs are a spiritual problem. Criminal solutions haven't worked. Logical arguments haven't worked. Even emotional arguments don't work. It is a spiritual problem, and the only reliable solution is a spiritual one. That's where we should be spending our energy, in my opinion.
