My summary
Maryon Stewart's 21-year-old daughter Hester died in April after taking the legal party drug GBL. Maryon believes that her daughter would have never taken the drug is she had known the potential risks. GBL is related to the banned date rape drug GHB and can be legal in tiny doses when combined with alcohol. Maryon said she was concerned about how some people saw taking legal highs as harmless as "eating smarties". Maryon thinks the drug should be banned and people should be made more aware of the risks.
My opinion
Of course I think it is good that she is trying to make people aware of the risks of the drug and is trying to ban it but there is something that is bothering me a bit. She is portraying her daughter as an angel throughout the whole article. It was her daughter who was taking the drugs in the first place! I think it is stupid to take drugs because even if it is legal there are still risks involved.
