SUMMARY:
When Mary Jane comes home from her first day of middle school confused and frustrated by the mockery of her middle name, her Mother decides its time to have "the conversation" with her daughter about marijuana. Join Mary Jane and her Mother as they discuss alternative names associated with marijuana, consequences of marijuana use as a student, preparation in case the driver of a vehicle is under the influence of of marijuana, and other real-life scenarios to help families segue into conversations to ultimately prevent youth from using and abusing marijuana.
REVIEWS:
"This book gives all parents, grandparents and caregivers an opportunity to start the conversation about marijuana and other drug use. Often approaching the subject of drug use of any type is difficult for parents AND children. This book takes the fear and frustration out of trying to find a way to bring up these subjects in an open way. I highly recommend this book for all parents and caregivers, because it is not written as a therapy or counseling book. It is written to help parents and children communicate positively and openly about concerns and expectations that both parents and youth have, but are often reluctant to discuss."
