You would be surprised. Busy does not always equal immune from drug use.
Absolutely right, and parents are fooling themselves if they think otherwise. Our local high school's lacrosse team was full of drug users, as was a family member's in another county. There are plenty of AP and IB students who also smoke pot regularly.
You know how adults can't wait to have a drink and kick back at the end of a workday? It's not different for many teens, and with the stress to be the best and brightest, why should we be surprised at the impact it has on them?
