Mary Lee, MD, FAAP, physician-in-chief of Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, recently penned a commentary for the Delaware State News entitled “Marijuana edibles dangerous to children” wherein she wrote:

• iPhones, tablets, laptops, etc are dangerous too. Just sayin.— Jackie Veal Cates
