Comment down below! "Where to begin..."That's one of the first thoughts that come to mind for many adults when determining the best strategy to initiate "the talk" about marijuana with their children and other youth.
Contribute to the conversation! If you have had a positive conversation with youth about marijuana, please share your tips! The most helpful posts will be published in the following blog TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: At what age did you initiate the conversation about marijuana? What was successful, and what was not useful?
