[quote=Anonymous]It is a big deal however I have had friends and relatives who are very casual about pot.  Most of them are failsons but a few are successful professionals.

If your ex is a loser with a substance abuse problem you aren't going to be able to convince that person that pot is bad.

You need to keep working on making sure your kids understand and believe in the bad consequences of drug use.

If you know of believable, true consequences that people have faced due to drugs now is the time to start talking about it.

I talked a lot to my kids about drunk driving and college boys dying from alcohol-induced injuries.  My uncle almost died in his 20s due to being a passenger in a car driven by a drunk driver and the driver did die.

I would be more likely to involve custody service people than the police.  I see why the police didn't get involved.  The problem is too common.  It's very easy for kids to get pot and pot products now that pot is legal for adults.  Especially from older siblings.  And honestly most people who think pot is fine for grownups aren't bothered about teens having some access.  It's pretty distressing.[/quote]
