This thread is about recreational use of marijuana, so you are advocating legalizing marijuana for recreational use by your daughters?

If you have not read what I wrote: in my long personal experience, till I came back to the Church at 40, marijuana smoking was a certain indicator that young girls were promiscuous (to be polite).

To be blunt, marijuana for young girls is a leg spreader. Allowing our daughters to smoke it for recreation is like allowing a rapist to live in your home and sleep in the same room as your daughters.
No more so than alcohol.

I advocate MJ should be as legal and readily available as alcohol and that the government should not have special taxes on anything (gas, meds, alcohol, etc).

It must be legalized so it can be available to all, regardless of income.

In the state where I live, it is legal and available to all. Though it is expensive, and regulated. Maybe low-income folks can get it cheaper at the pot shops here (there are many). I have no idea.

I'm surprised that you aren't aware of the regulations of pot shops in states where it has been legalized, since you claim to know SO MUCH about it.

You have no idea, is right.

Why should I know about the laws of every location where it is legal?  Did I say I was an expert on the laws regarding MJ?

That's a lot of "shoulds."

Everything should be legal, in your view, with no restrictions or special taxes. That means, it would stand to reason, that you believe that most people are usually capable of making good decisions when it comes to substances that are addictive and mind-altering? I can see that a Libertarian, for example, would think this, but a Catholic who understands fallen human nature might think differently.
