Heavy Delta 8 use has been associated with psychosis.

How do you know it's Delta-8? or is that something you can buy old-school in a baggie or is it just vaping?

Please help a clueless mom who recently found old-school pot in teen's room. We've talked about dangers, but this is new to me.

If it weren't for the world judging me, I would have just stuck to flower.
You could even buy them a flower vaporizer and say that it's allowed to be used in their room so long as they quit the carts. If you're really just concerned about their health and not scared of normal weed.
Yes weed these days is more potent, but your body gets used to it, I've never done anything crazy on weed or oil and I've smoked it every day for 10 years besides some of my pregnancies. (I had HG and needed it for morning sickness).
It's very unlikely that flower is going to have other drugs in it. People aren't going to waste their hard drugs lacing weed that's already strong.

Pp here from a strict Asian household and this is how my parents handled my pothead younger sister 10 years ago.

She was “allowed” to smoke pot at home as long as her grades were good an extra curriculars were ok.

Only joints or her small glass bowl were ok. No bongs/bubblers etc

She could only do it on the back patio in the evening as the sun was going down/or at night but not after a certain hour

No carts, no dabs, tinctures, concentrates.

She stuck to the rules and to this day really is only a flower person.

I think she understood how big of a deal it was for our parents to meet her half way so was happy just having her space and didn’t go overboard.

well as long as their grades are ok then it's alright /saracasm

Yes very bad for them, everywhere and accepted, hard To tackle. My kid has been regularly using for three years older teen and I think it has really impacted their life negatively. I’ve tried just about everything.

This is upsetting. What does this mean you’ve tried just about everything? You cut off access to funds and phone?

Yup. And treatment x 2. Anyone who says weed isn’t addictive has facts and science to back it up, unlike people who claim weed is addictive

FIFY.

I love how these threads bring out the pearl clutchers whose perceptions of cannabis use come from "Reefer Madness" and 1980s-era "Just Say No" propaganda.

I don't know if that's what he used, but my nephew had a psychotic break from weed use. It was terrifying for his family.

This is the OP. You yourself are bringing outdated perceptions based on what weed was like decades ago, and before vaping and edibles became teens’ preferred methods of using. Please educate yourself so you can understand the current landscape, rather than shutting down parents who are both concerned and, in my case, a professional in behavioral health.

Ha. Me neither.

Carts? cart pen? flower? flower vaporizer? weed oil? Lacing weed?

I got a lot to learn...

The weed of today is supposedly way more problematic than old fashioned week. More likely to be laced and potent.

Please stop with this! Yes, I think that carts are dangerous but they are not laced!

Why? They are buying them on the street, the number of kids going to the emergency room in a state of psychosis is off the charts now. Even the stuff that is legal to buy has an incredibly high potency causing issues.

But hey, let's legalize more drugs and deal with the consequences later after we count the tax revenue.

Correct. No less a source than High Times says unregulated carts bought outside dispensaries are dangerous due to additives. They also point out that even legal carts can be dangerous.

If you don’t understand it, that’s a problem. Flower is the term you use when you use the plant in its natural form, like if you were to grow it at home and harvest it yourself. You can vape that, this is the cleanest and safest way.

Um, this is disturbing on so many levels. You are a parent and still smoking marijuana? Absolutely disturbing!
