[QUOTE="DDD, post: 315200, member: 35"] I'm so sorry. After years and years of hearing and reading about pot I honestly think it must be terribly appealing. Evidently your problems seem to disappear and you feel peaceful in most cases. So many of our difficult child's have spent a lifetime struggling to feel normal that the temptation is far greater than one would think. My easy child/difficult child has not used drugs for three or four years. He is an alcoholic. According to him it is still difficult to stay away from pot. Plus he knows that the alcohol causes him to get into trouble (loud, unthinking etc and in jeophardy of arrest for unruliness) where the pot use didn't alter his personality. Much to my [B]big [/B]surprise, I recently found out that at least one midde age very successful adult relative uses pot every month or two to ease the tensions of parenting teens and managing a slew of businesses. It must be quite a temptation. I hope your son did not have the pleasant experience that some of our kids had. Personally I think that heredity plays a bigger role in alcohol and drug use than most of us recognize. Fingers crossed it was a one time thing. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
