Is pot worse than dope and how bad is that?

Article Abstract:

Lifeline is a drug advice agency in Manchester which receives many enquiries from parents, so it has produced a leaflet: 'Everything you wanted to know about cannabis but were afraid to ask your kids: an insider's guide.' It gives clear facts and uses the same cartoon character, Peanut Pete, who appears in guides for drug users themselves. Official drug advice pamphlets tend to discuss several kinds of drugs at once, confusing the reader.
