Should Kids be offered medical marijuana?

In the article above, a seven year old girl named Mykayla Comstock was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic luekemia in July. Against the doctor's wishes, her mother has been giving Mykayla small caspules filled with cannabis oil. The oil must be working because she went into remission in August. The effect that marijuana has on children is yet to be discovered, but the real question is should kids  be denied the use of marijuana in order to help cure their illnesses just because they are kids?
