Talking to Teens About Marijuana

It’s not uncommon for teenagers to try marijuana, and some go on to use it regularly. Teenagers today are more likely to use marijuana than they are to use tobacco, even though it’s illegal for minors to use marijuana in every state. People can smoke it, consume it, or apply tinctures to the skin to use marijuana. The marijuana plants growing today are different from ones grown in the past: Today’s plants may contain two or three times the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that plants contained years ago. This makes the plants grown currently much stronger, since they contain more of the chemical that makes people high.
