7n My Knowledge My Son 14 Yrs Old Smoking What Can I Do I But I Not See Him

Should I let my 15 year old daughter smoke weed?

Sir, or ma’am, first I want to say, it is totally 100% up to you whether YOU are OKAY with her smoking weed. But now I’m going to tell you, you have 100% no control over if she does or doesn’t.I’m 16 y/o now, and started smoking at 14. I’m a bright child, get straight A’s, have a good home life, and am not a bad child.I didn’t ask my mother if I could smoke weed, I knew there was no reason cuz the answer would be no. But I did it anyways. I didn’t do it to run away from my problems, or escape reality, I did it because I wanted to experience weed for myself at least once. but I wanted to do it with friends, and people who would be fun to do it with.Smoking weed does have it’s side-effects, but nothing bad. yeah, once in a while if you smoke too much, you might get paranoid, but I’ll tell you know, too much weed can also make her feel sick to her stomach and make her stop herself before she gets that high. Smoking weed can be so helpful to a person, no matter what age. I have trouble concentrating, anxiety,social anxiety, and insomnia. When I smoke weed in small amounts, I sleep better, and can communicate better, concentrate so much more, especially with school.And who is she smoking with? More than likely friends that care about her. She wouldn’t do it alone unless she was at home or out back in the yard. As long as she is with friends, nothing bad will happen. I’ll tell you now, all stoners look out for other stoners, especially first time smokers! as it’s said, “A stoner never lets a stoner get stoned.” meaning they never let a friend get harmed. they’ll keep her fed, and give her a place to sleep if she is sleep, take her out to do fun things while she is high, and watch her to make sure she doesn’t do stupid shit.In my opinion, let her smoke. At least then, you know she is doing it, and she will be honest with you about it. Smoke with her, so you know what it is like, so you know how she feels. For all you know, you might end up liking the way you feel high, or maybe even realize it helps you in some way.Just remember, you can’t stop her, she is 15. you can only talk to her, and understand.P.S if she is smoking after you said no, and you find out, yelling atop your lungs won’t help at all. I should know. it will make the situation worse. just sit her down and talk to her like a normal person.

How should I punish my 17 year old son for drinking beer?

There are a lot of people on here making arguments about going to war, but those are really just red herrings. Here is what you do: Find out why.Kids try new things, especially things with the veil of mystique. They want to know about these things that they see all over TV, and that all of the adults and “cool kids” are doing. It’s important to talk to them about the possible issues associated with it. What if an officer had caught them. What if they had been pulled over while driving? What if an accident had happened and someone required medical attention (a lot of fatalities occur when kids are drinking because they are too scared to call it in). What about the long term effects of alcohol consumption, especially on still developing brains.So, was it just one beer, or a case. Was he just trying it out, or is this ongoing. Did he want to try it just to know, or is it indicative of a larger problem with alcohol abuse. If your son is a closet alcoholic, you have other problems you need to worry about. If he was doing it to celebrate, you can talk to him about other, legal ways to celebrate. If he was doing it to alleviate stress, you need to find out how much stress he is under and talk about better ways to handle it. Was he, like many of my students, drinking just out of sheer boredom? Boredom plus alcohol is a fantastic recipe for disaster.Punishment tells him he needs to do a better job of hiding it next time. Talking and educating create much more lasting effects, and, as another writer pointed out, prevent it from being a problem next year, when he can legally do what he wants.If nothing else, remind him that he may need to be the responsible one who can take someone to the hospital when all of his friends are too drunk. It sucks, but that’s part of being an adult, making the less fun choice so that others can be safe. Also, that jails are full of drivers who thought that they were ok to drive (no one ever drinks and drives hoping to get pulled over or in an accident).
