[quote=Anonymous]Research into cigarette smokers in the 1970s led to the Stages of Change/Transtheoretical model. I think it’s an excellent model in describing why some people cling to unhelpful habits. If your adult child isn’t ready to make a change in his life, there’s not much you can do. You can let him experience natural consequences. When he talks about regrets or failures you can, as kindly as possible, mirror back to him where he failed to meet his responsibilities. If he reaches the pre-contemplation or contemplation stage, you can throw your support behind making positive changes, whether that’s pursuing therapy, getting a new job, cutting back on THC, or quitting cannabis altogether.
