Just to follow on, there are a few reasons not to synthesize drugs.
One is that there is a state security apparatus monitoring what people buy, both in terms of equipment and chemicals. Your son will get caught and very possibly go to jail. That also will affect his future life prospects—for example, if he wants to work in a research lab with controlled substances, the federal government will background check him and this would not look good.
The other is that if he’s successful, he will suddenly have a very large quantity of powerful narcotics on hand. If anyone finds out, that makes him and your family targets for criminals as well as the federal government.
Finally, the synthesis for LSD is really long and complicated. I don’t know which steps are dangerous, but probably a bunch of them. And if successful, then it would be really easy to, say, contaminate the house with LSD.
