I totally disagree. Children are always impressed by a singer, no matter if he's using drugs or not, and someone that starts with drugs isn't doing it because Robbie William or any other star is doing it. He/She is doing it because the person wants to try something new.

Hey Super, you've said previously that you noticed Richie behaviour, its easy to spot drugged up behaviour,
|
For me yes, but I don't think a kid can tell you Richie is on drugs when just smoking some weed. There's nothing bad in smoking a joint every now and then. I don't do it myself, but the entire weed thing has been blown out of proportions by people who've never smoked it but just know it's drugs and therefor bad. Science has proven that smoking weed is good for you just as long as you don't do it too often. It's better to smoke one joint every week then one ciggie.

kids arent stupid, we are, to let it carry on in front of kids with out putting laws in place to stop it. Its like saying well if you want to be an athelete then its no to drugs, but there goes Liam from Oasis again, ok just another tortured singer living off millions we jsut let him carry on!!!!!!!

You can't make laws for anything. Kids see famous stars smoke cigarettes as well, you don't say "I don't want to see a famous star with a ciggie in his mouth as it might put my kid on the Marlboro Lights"

A lot of stars will go out of their way to not be seen smoking to present a bad picture to kids, hardly anyone smokes anymore on tv. Its ironic, u find more people /stories, plots of people taking drugs than you do of them smoking a cig.
Kids dont start smoking on their own, they have always seen someone esle smoking first, whether on tv or their parents, it looks cool so they have a go. The same thing can be said for drugs, something inside make s them want to say no, but then with so many bad influences around them of people already using they try it.
