[quote=Anonymous]'why would I drug test him if I already knew he was getting high? But as for what I'd do generally, it depends on the kid. My child has a long history of depression, so it would concern me. A lot. I'd always be kind and nonjudgmental so that we maintain open lines of communication, but I would talk to them about life circumstances and feelings that they might be trying to avoid through numbing. If my kid was emotionally stable I would be more chill about it. But either way, I wouldn't permit it. I recognize that teens ignore rules and do a lot of things their parents tell them not to, but pot is illegal for kids under 18 and can be very harmful. My personal opinion is that giving a kid permission to do something like that doesn't help. You have to set some boundaries and this is a battle I'd pick. [/quote]
