I Am Looking for Websites With Information on Marijuana Addiction for a Teenager.?

Question by Medic_13: I am looking for websites with information on marijuana addiction for a teenager.?
If you know of any websites that show the negative effects of marijuana use, I would appreciate the help. My searches have mostly turned up pro-marijuana sites, and while there are many of them, the research they point to seems very shoddy.

Websites that specialize in information for teenagers addicted to marijuana (and now several other drugs) would be very helpful.

Please, no pro-drug answers or websites. If you believe that drugs are not harmful, that’s fine, but it’s not a viewpoint I share and not the type of sites I am looking for.

He doesn’t have to earn money, yet he can take drugs, come home anytime he wants, eat when he wants, turn on the electricity, and there is hot water. Christine: No one else can do that in life, except for a drug addict. Charlie: Exactly. Christine: You get rewarded. Charlie: Because they (parents/spouses) are taking all the consequences of his actions. So what do parents do? What do they do? You know, what do they do? It’s simple, they do nothing. Christine: Yeah, that’s right, it forces, it forces the person to have a realisation.
