[quote=Anonymous]It depends. My freshman has a friend who started vaping pot in MS. That kid has made some poor choices and been caught multiple times. That kid I would test.

In some ways I'm more concerned about pot than I am alcohol because of how incredibly easy it is to hide these days. Betwee vaping and edibles (and the "legal" options like Delta 8), these kids aren't really rolling joints or smoking from bongs (or homemade soda can bongs like we made in high school). They can use almost anytime/anywhere without detection and for some kids that is very seductive.

I realize that some people have life long relationships with pot that they find healthy and part of their lifestyle. To those I say Godspeed. But for kids, kids whose brains are still developing and who are in such a crucial time of social and emotional growth, I believe the risk of addiction (some argue it's not physically addictive, but if it's psychologically addictive is there really a difference?) is great and it's important to keep an eye on. Especially in these post-covid times when mental health issues are at an all time high (pun unintended). [/quote]
