[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that the girl will need some non-drugging friends. We’re hoping for clues from her parents about what steps they will take to get her on a better path. Right now, they are focused on the suspension. That isn’t inspiring confidence that they take it seriously.

Even if our thinking was “It’s just a little weed.”, there are [b]other parents in the friend group who told their teens to drop the girl.[/b] Partly because the girl’s parents appear to want to fight the suspension although there’s no doubt she possessed on school grounds. If she comes to DD’s party, at least 4 other girls might not. I’m worried this will label us soft on drugs. Maybe splinter DD off into a peer group of weed smokers. [/quote]

These people are ridiculous. [/quote]

Agree. Kids make [b]mistakes[/b], and what the girl did was hardly egregious.[/quote]

[b]A mistake is an unintended error. An accident.[/b] [i]I forgot to put my cellphone in my locker before taking my AP Exam and it fell out in front of the proctor. [/i]

[i]I used my vape to consume weed at school. [/i]That’s a poor judgment.

The vaping girl absolutely made a mistake.
