Pre-teens on pot Posted by Emma

From Daily Mail
October 7, 2011

When Jenny Hayworth pulled her daughter’s PE kit from her sports bag, something dropped to the floor. There was no mistaking the thin, white object.

The only question was: what was her daughter Amy doing with a half-smoked joint?

When Jenny confronted her, Amy burst into tears and admitted she’d tried cannabis for the first time at a friend’s party a few weeks before and had recently smoked it for a second time.

Sadly, Jenny is not the only parent who has discovered their child is taking drugs at such as young age.

Ian Martin, from Plymouth, found out his 12-year-old step-daughter had smoked cannabis when the family got a call from the school.

What would you do if you found out your pre-teen had tried pot? Would you encourage them to talk to you about it? Do you think stars such as NDubz Fazer set a bad example for teens and pre-teens?
