As with any drug, the drug isn't the problem. Pot was legal and widely available at the founding of this country. Our own founders grew it for consumption and as hemp (though hemp is not pot; pot can be used as hemp).
Minors consuming any drug is detrimental to their health and development. Minors consuming alcohol is also detrimental. It's legal. It's not encouraged. Heck, antibiotics are detrimental to your health. It's just that they are more detrimental to your infection than you.
Minors should be kept busy. Less supervision develops with trust and a pattern of consistency and adult thinking and responsibility. Minors who continue to act like irresponsible children continue to require supervision of that of irresponsible children.
Largely substance abuse is caused by the feminist imposed social problems, which include no parental supervision because they are both out of the house working.
