Help a hero out!
Simple question: does anyone have any sourced information about the effects of marijuana on pregnant women and their children? I'm in a lifespan psychology course right now, and our textbook (published in 2008) doesn't list it as a harmful substance, but another handout (published in 1985) we got does, so I'm curious if it has since been found to not actually be a cause of complications for the baby. My instincts tell me "of course it's harmful, dummy," but relying on instincts is hardly a proper scientific approach. The things I'm finding on Google merely state "studies show that it [is/isn't] harmful]" without actually linking said studies, and I'm loathe to take that at face value.

I don't smoke, so I'm not looking for a specific answer here, but the teacher of my class has been empirically wrong several times so far in the past two weeks and I don't trust her very halfhearted answer.
