Marijuana is both emotionally and mentally addictive. Once an individual becomes addicted to marijuana it develops into part of who they believe themselves to be. Avoiding their friends who do not use, the addict will gravitate to others that do. Marijuana is a topic that is always on their mind, whether it be thinking about the next time they will be able to get high or where their going to get their next sack. When someone is addicted to marijuana eventually their friends and the people close to them only know how they act when their stoned because they no longer do anything without first smoking. Their constant abuse is due to the misconception that marijuana is what they need to solve their problems. Sometimes addicts will take their stash with them wherever they go, just in case an opportunity arises and they are able to take a couple hits. They may even go through several dealers in order to make sure they always have a constant supply of marijuana - For assistance Call 1-800-405-8409: http://WWW.marijuanaaddiction.info/
I wish you the best !!
I say get tough you are the parent. if you have to take a week off of work to stay on her side and make sure she isn’t cutting up then do it. I bet you money that once she sees that you aren’t playing around with her and her future then she will straighten up. and being a hard azz does show them that you love them. you are not there to be a friend, but there is a fine line there. you have to show them that you care, but not like a friend would, like a parent would. when a women has a baby that is her # one JOB.to try and raise a kind ,loving, decent human being, and being nice doesn’t always work, let her know you need bussines.my 17 year old knows that I will just drop in at school, work, where ever he may be to check on him.I am not a control freak, but untill they are 18, I WILL knopw where they are and who they are with at ALL times..so maybe you have to nail a window shut so they can’t sneak out or what ever..good luck
people usually do these types of things when they don’t get enough attention at home so they follow into peer pressure so they feel accepted somewhere. 14 is a young age to start these things, you should try spending more time with her and show her that you’re there for her to talk to if she has a problem. First things first you should have a family session with her at a physchologist whether she likes it or not. she seems like shes lost & needs some help to stay on the right path but she needs help doing it. it’s necessary to encourage her to make better choices before it’s too late. it’s your job as a parent to enforce rules and guide your child in the right direction. I hope some of this helped you, good luck!
As a person that has gone through the stage your daughter is going through, I hope I can give you some advice on what you could do. I was 16, and I went through that too, but let me tell you when my parents started to pay attention especially my dad thigs got better, I can finally admit that I did all that to get the attention of my parents. Thats all it is. They don’t get enough attention when they do good so they start doing bad. But I’m am not saying your a bad parent. I’m sure your not, if you were than you wouldn’t ask for help. one more thing, I hope I won’t offend you, prayer is the strongest thing out there, trust me. good luck
smoking cigarettes is quite normal for teenagers nowadays but I would recommend to get her to stop and as for smoking weed heres a link for parents guide to marijuana it explains how to talk to your children about marijuana dont waste time and money on a doctor
http://stash.norml.org/2008/04/18/dr-mitch-earleywine-on-parents-guide-to-marijuana/
pay more attention to her I have 2 friends that do that exact same thing so talk to her and spend time with her make her feel loved get all ciggerets and alcohol out of the house. find out who is the one with the weed and get her/him away from her. If she says your ruining her life or something like that tell her your saving her life and if she doesnt listen then you’ll know your helping.
as a 16 year old girl myself, it would only of have been about 2 years ago for me. There are many things you can do. But as the parent you are the one that needs to change, none of this would of have happened if you had disiplinded her properly. Go and a see her a doctor, take her to a sycartrist, or go away on a mini break for a week to 2 weeks. Get to know everything about her. Dont let her out of your site.MAKE her go.. GET TOUGH!!!
Do her friends do that to? If they don’t speak to her closest friends they can normally make her change her mind
talk to her Dr and they can give you some references…dont delay…your daughter is too important!
