My sister has been smoking pot at school, what should I do?!


Question: My sister has been smoking pot at school, what should I do!?
She is only 13 and if she is caught at school she is screwed!. I don't know what to do!. It's not my right to tell my mom but I don't know if I should have her best interest in mind!. Here's another question, if we go to the doctors for a urine sample it will say she's done drugs but will they tell my mom that she's doing it!? I want some way for my mom to find out without my telling her so that my sister can get help because it's dangerous!. Also, in your opinion how bad is marijuana!? Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Definitely tell your mother!. The sooner the better!. The longer you wait, the more your sister will be attached!. I don't think you should second guess yourself!. This is a serious matter!. And marijuana!.!.!. is illegal!. It wouldn't be illegal if it wasn't bad!. I wish you the best of luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i might not know what the best thing to do is, but my suggestion would be to talk to her yourself, tell her how you feel about her doing it and make her realize that abusing that drug could damage her!. In my opinion marijuana is not as bad as people would want you to believe, it is a gateway drug though, ive known people that started with marijuana and led up to other things!. The thing with young teens, even if parents tell them not to do something they will always go around their parents back and do it anyway until they start suffering the consequences!. trust me i know i did that!.!.!. =/Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't tell your mom, marijuana is not necessarily a bad thing at all!. Some people do misuse it, like alcohol!. But alcohol is wayy different than marijuana!. You should talk to her, and make sure she does NOT do it at school!. Make sure she is safe and make sure she doesn't get caught!. She should not be scolded, but tough how to do it responsibly!.
Don't look down on herb! It is mind opening and a positive thing! (in moderation, as with everything in life)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Confront your sister about it in a very calm and brotherly fashion!. Let her know that you don't want to get your parents involved and that you have her best interest in mind, and notify her of the risks of bringing any type of illegal substance to school!. Smoking pot is not the biggest of deals, but doing it at school will get you into much more trouble and you are much more likely to get caught!. Marijuana is pretty harmless to be 100% completely honest with you, much less harmful than drinking is !.I started when I was about your sisters age and used to smoke pot before school every day during my high school years, no big deal!. However, there were always the kids that were stupid enough to bring it into school and get caught with it!.!.!.it is a very unessecary risk and your sister can find herself on probation doing a bunch of unessecary community service!.

Tell her the consequences and that you care about her!. If they don't test for marijuana they won't find any!. Also, there is a privacy law and the doctor can not share information w/out a patient's consent!. I personally don't smoke marijuana and it's not something that I would advice but Meth and Heroin are definitely bigger problemsWww@Answer-Health@Com

marijuana isn't as bad as some other drugs!. However I don't think that doctors can tell a child's parents that they have been doing drugs unless they are like under 10 because that would violate the doctor-patient contract!. You just have to show your sister that smoking pot isn't as cool as she thinks and that it is actually a terrible habit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

im glad to hear you are worried about your sister, it shows that you care about her!.
she will get caught sooner or later, trust me!. if shes smoking at, or before school, she definatley will get caught!. i promise that!.
there are so many kids in my grade that have been caught smoking!. even if you come to school stoned, they can tell (most of the time)!.
if she was caught at school, ofcourse they would tell your parents, and she would either be suspended or expelled and possibly turned into the police!. serious matter here!.
i suggest you advise her not to smoke at school, and to think of the consequences!. as for smoking weed in general, i personally dont think it is that bad for you!. do your homework- research it!. everyone says its so bad for you, but in reality, it is harmless if used in moderation!.

goodluck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Marijuana is not as bad as cigarettes!. There has never been a reported case of someone dying of weed!. But it is dangerous at this age!. Tell your mom if you really love your sister then you will help her!. If she gets mad at you then so be it!. When she gets raped or pregnant you will say at least I tried to help her and you wont feel bad about it!. don't smoke weed until your at least 16!. Or better yet not at all but that's boring!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

most doctors don't automatically test for drugs when they take blood and urine samples!. so, unless you ask him to do it, he probably wont!. and if your sister gets caught at school, that will be her life lesson, wont it!? sometimes we have to get caught in order to learn not to do things!. maybe your sister will need to learn the hard way!. marijuana isn't that bad if it is used in moderation!. some people go nuts on it, and stay stoned all day, every day- then you have a big problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Marijuana is ILLEGAL!.

And you should tell your mom!. This is a serious problem!. Would you rather have your sister get REALLY sick and possibly die or get busted by your parents!? Smoking that young an age will shorten her life even more!. You have to tell your mom because I can see no other way you can bust her!.

I hope this helped and hopefully your sister will stop this NASTY habit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well it's not as bad as most drugs but it's still disgusting!! and it's not helthy either!. do whatever you have to, to let yoru parents know she's doing this!. it's better for them to find out now then for them to find out later and it's too lateWww@Answer-Health@Com

maybe you could get a close relative to tell your mom!.!.
you can have a guardian call the cops and they can arrest her and put her in jail for a day or 2 to get a taste of what it could be like if she really got caught!.!.

Best of Luck :]Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would actually speak with her or your guidance councilor!. Let them know that she is doing something!. They can actually counsel you how to cope with her!.

Maybe you, your sister & the guidance councilor can have a chat together!.

Everyone is going to have a different opinion of marijuana and the affects that it has!. Marijuana itself is not harmful, it does contain the drug, THC, but the affects are minor and wear off!. Basically it just makes things that aren'tt really funny!.!.!.!. funny!.
Marijuana is used as a prescription drug to aid in the pain associated with M!.S as well asGlaucomaa disease (in the eyes), but is still toocontroversiall to be legal!. You cant really control the amount of THC that you can get from the plant as some strands are more intense than others!.
It is absolutely NOT even close tocomparablee with hard drugs like cocaine, meth, heroin, etc!.!.!. but because most people that do hard drugs also smoke weed, it is called the "gateway drug" leading people to try other kinds!.
I personally smoke weed, I enjoy it and there reallyaren'tt any harmful side affects, I would just not recommend someone with severe anxiety to smoke it as it usually tends to freak them out more!. Other people with anxiety smoke it to help calm their nerves!. My fiance has A!.D!.H!.D and he smokes weed in replace of taking other drugs like Ritalinn!. He had very bad side affects with Ritalinn and ended up gaining a LOT of weigh!.
Marijuana makes you want to eat (munchies) and laugh or just sit and think about stuff!. People that smoke weed are generally non-violent people (weed is a mild relaxant) and like to just hang out!.
I wouldn't worry too much about your sister smoking weed unless you find her trying other drugs!.!.!. that is when you have a problem, because unlike other drugs marijuana is not addictive!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Letting your mom know your sister is smoking pot is the best thing to do!. Just when you go to talk to her let her know that there is something that you feel is very important for her to know but will she give you her word that she didn't find out what you know from yourself!.
I can't really think of any other way to tell her without her wondering where it came from and if it holds water or not!. When your sister ask your mom where she came up with this information all she will have to say is that isn't important!. What you can do is type up a letter so she won't know who sent it but your sister can say that it was from somebody that is mad at her or something like that!.
As for how bad is pot, the answer is it can lead to harder drugs!. Pot by itself isn't bad besides it puts one in the mood what they are satisfied with what they have!.
I started smoking pot when I was 11 or 12 and smoked it all my life until I got busted for it and one thing lead to another as the first time wasn't enough!. But the second time I got busted I took it more to heart as I lost everything, wife, family, house, you name it, I lost it!.
I had lots of time to think and realized what my dad told me was true!. I was a locksmith and made lots of money and could have made a lot more but I would only make enough to buy my drugs and never got ahead!.
Now I'm 48 and have a job that I barely make enough to do extra things with my new family!. Teeth are bad and falling out because pot wasn't enough and I did meth, coke, acid and other drugs because if pot can make you feel one way, and it didn't hurt me like everyone said it would, what makes me think others will hurt me!? So now I'm paying for what I did!.
Sure one may not pay for it right away but in the future she will be happy that you did what you did and thank you for it!.
Hope this helps!. I'm happy to hear that there are still family that cares about their brothers and sisters!.
Have a Blessed Day!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

First of all, if she has her urine tested at the doctor and it returns a positive result for marijuana, then yes, the doctor can and probably will involve your parents, especially if they pay the bill and are legal guardians!.

As for talking to her, I would just level with her and explain that, yeah, pot ISN'T necessarily that bad, but that doesn't mean that it's not illegal!. Explain to her that if she's caught, not only will she be expelled, but she'll also most likely face juvenile charges and have to see a probation officer every month!. Also, tell her to look at the people she's smoking pot with at school!. Ask her how many people that is, because I'm sure it's only a handful!. Explain that those are the only people smoking pot at school, and it's obviously not the "cool" thing to do, because if it were, then there would be a lot more people doing it!.

Worst come to worst, tell your mom!. But whatever you do, you want to do it quick before the wrong person finds out!. And by the way, it will be close to impossible to make her understand that she's too young to start something like that!. It's the last thing a 13 year old wants to hear!. If you wanted to go the extra mile, the police, most of them anyways, would be sympathetic to your position and might even talk to her or even scare her a little bit to get her into reality!.

Sounds off the wall, but so is a 13 year old smoking pot at school!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
