What would you defenders of recreational MJ smoking think of say your son having long beautiful flowing clean hair like the picture below? What would you advise your son about his hair? Say like this:

It is interesting the different personalities and how they perceive these things. Ladislaus, and Pax Vobis are very similar, their thinking is theoretical, and everything must fit into what they know. That is the way they are wired. I on the other hand am a field marshal, I am out in the battlefield with no one to ask for orders, I am it, if I don't think fast on my feet, I, and all of my men are as good as dead. My teachers, my grandfather, had 5000 employees under him, and my father had 2000. I learned from them. I fortunately did not have as many employees depending on me like they did, but I had at least 50 employees and thousands of other people who were employees in companies I supplied, that depended on my going to work every day and making the right decisions. When one does that day in day out, one learns to think fast because at any moment you could make a mistake that will affect many people's lives.  One has to be able to think outside of the box and be quick to change anything that does not work. The mindset of Ladi and Pax Vobis would have failed in the 1960's revolution, that is what happened to the priests. For young people it will go in one ear and out the other. It went and still goes in one ear and out the other for me and I am now in my late 60's.

In essence, you're good with quick decisions, which is contrary to the principles of moral theology. And admitting that you probably shouldn't be one to address these concerns, yes?

Looks fine. Our Lord is often depicted with beautiful flowing hair too.

In my experience very few if any SSPX priests (that's where I go) can guide young people in matters of MJ, alcohol, self-abuse, pornography and pre-marital relations, because they have no personal experience whatsoever.
This is a very dangerous and stupid statement.  You're almost denying the vocational graces and holy inspirations that priests have, from the Holy Ghost, to guide those young people of good will.  You need to step off your soap box.

If you have not smoked pot you can't know anything but what you read. If you have friends who smoke pot, that is one way to learn about the effects by seeing them and how they live. Do you have any experience with relatives and friends who smoke pot?
Yep, I have known many people over the years who smoke.  I currently know a few lawyers who use it to unwind, instead of alcohol.  In my experience, some kids go overboard, some don't.  Some turn into hippies, some don't.  Some grow out of it and some don't.  It depends on the person.

No. When there is no time and no option but a quick decision, the foundation of decision comes from what one has learned from real world experience, preferable from other people's mistakes over many years. The decision is fast, but the knowledge of what to do was long in acquiring.  "Fools rush in where wise men fear to tread". It is really not a quick decision of a fool.

The question is;  What would you advise your son about his hair? Would you then complement him and say he looks very handsome, that he looks like the pictures of Our Lord? Is that what you would say to him?
