Here are some of the common reasons why kids use marijuana and other drugs and some things you can do to counteract these reasons. Kids use marijuana to feel grown up.
Children like to imitate adults.
This imitation takes on many forms as they grow, including wearing their parents' clothes, copying the way that they speak, and imitating some of their behaviors. This is because they think that being grown up is a very desirable thing. Grown-ups have the freedom to say and do anything they want. They can also eat and drink anything they want. The harder you try to rein them in, the harder your children may rebel.
