I find this fairly disconcerting (and other stories like it). Can hardly believe sometimes how "authorities" feel they have a right to interfere in everyday people's lives.

Kansas mom loses custody of son, 11, after he gives marijuana speech

Banda [the Mom], a motivational speaker and author on the medical marijuana issue...is the author of a book "Live Free or Die: Reclaim your Life . . . Reclaim your Country!" that recounts her use of a concentrated cannabis oil to treat Crohn's Disease.​

It's a little bizarre that they were able to get a warrant to search the mother's house. Unless the kid literally said "We keep drugs in the house," I don't see how they could swing that one.

And like in all controversial child protection cases, the gag order stinks to high-heaven.
