We
hear quite often from youth and parents that they believe marijuana is not
addictive. This is a misconception. Research has shown that marijuana is
a highly addictive drug. The earlier someone starts using, the greater
the chance of becoming addicted. The National Institute of Drug Abuse
states that individuals who use marijuana before the age of 18 are 4-7 times
more likely to become addicted as they enter adulthood. “It is estimated that
about 1 in 6 people who start using as a teen…become addicted to marijuana.”
Since the brain is not fully developed until the mid-20s, teens have a higher
risk of addiction. Further, marijuana use affects memory, emotion
control, coordination, and other important brain functions. With marijuana
being the most commonly abused illicit drug in the United States and with the
high possibility of addiction, it is important to educate young people on the
risks of marijuana use.
- Start talking: Kids who learn about the risks of drugs at home are up to 50% less likely to use.
- Keep the conversation going: You may think your child isn’t listening, but they hear you!
- Set firm limits and have a clear no use policy: Let your child know that you disapprove of any drug or alcohol use.
