There is a saying here "Love the addict, hate the disease".
My son understands that, I suspect he hates the disease too.
They are in the process of legalizing marijuana here in Canada too, the most recent Prime Minister ran with that as part of his platform. It makes me shudder, really it does. No good will come of this.
We're here for you any time you need to vent/share/ask questions or just join in the support of others going through the same thing.
