First off just because you have two examples of people living homely lives who happened to smoke pot is laughable. There are plenty of successful people that smoke pot, most just hide it because, you know, it's illegal. Politian’s, lawyers, judges, etc. all have people in their ranks that smoke pot. Are Richard Branson and Ted Turner successful because they smoke pot? No! I would never make that correlation because just like yours it's ridiculous.
As for kids again studies have shown that decriminalization (even though I think legalization is the better option) have shown a drop in use for kids. It becomes harder to get when it is regulated. It is easier for kids to get marijuana than it is alcohol because of that reason. Drug dealers don't ask for ID, just money. If you want your kids to stay away from drugs than you educate them, you don't try and hide.
