Having a young child, and this scares the shit out of me. We keep things real open for her to come to us with any questions. Try to educate her, as it seems that a large majority of kids are smoking weed at a very young age. I hear the kids talk, and say how it is good for you, and that opens up an opportunity for me to talk to them. they do not even touch this subject in school here, but talk about other things that are trivial, imo. So the brain is still developing til age 25, and kids are starting this so young is interfering with development, on top of all the other things that affect the brain. When we were younger I distinctly remember that commercial with the egg frying in the pan saying this is your brain on drugs. Scared the shit out of me. I will enforce my own DARE program.
Every generation faces different challenges, and some kids turn to unhealthy coping ways. I am trying to instill good coping skills, but we can do as much as we can and when they walk out our door...we hope they make good conscious choices
