How about neither? I realize that is not the question, but why is there a question at all? Neither drugs or alcohol should be a part of a ten year old's life.

And the Robert Downey, Jr., episode evidently wasn't an isolated incident. It was a way of life for him in his pre-teens. His father and his film friends didn't think a bit of pot on a regular basis would hurt a kid.

I haven't a clue who Ashley is, but I really don't feel deprived about it all.
