File this one under: two teens that need a severe beating:

Police in suburban Fort Worth, Texas, said a videotape found in a search for stolen goods appears to show two teenagers persuading a 2-year-old boy and his 5-year-old brother to smoke marijuana.

Now, I'm no expert in raising children, and I have no kids of my own. But I'm gonna go out on a limb here and offer up the following advice to mothers out there: if your brother is a seventeen year old dope-smoking loser known to police as a thief... leaving him in charge of your children is a poor idea. Perhaps you shouldn't be sleeping during times like these.
