[QUOTE="UpandDown, post: 679734, member: 19025"] Interesting question for sure. My difficult child uses marijuana to medicate. I wonder all the time if I could have said something different when he was younger. Yet, he was very anti-drug and anti smoking up until he himself started. I do wish I had not overreacted when I found out. That I can say with certainty. I was so upset and shocked when I found out and I punished him and tried to scare the daylights out of him. Now I know that didn't help at all. I now know that he was struggling desperately and that weed made him feel good. I wish I would have used that opportunity to listen and try and understand what was going on. [/QUOTE]
