Think about why you are concerned about your child. Do they seem to be feeling differently? Have they had unexplained changes in mood? Maybe it seems like your child is acting fearful for no clear reason. It is possible that it could be marijuana use. Marijuana is a psychoactive substance; it interacts with the user's brain, temporarily changing the way he or she thinks and feels. Smoking marijuana can cause cognitive impairment during a high which increases as more marijuana is consumed. If you think your child may be high, look for the following mental symptoms: Slowed reaction time Impaired decision-making Diminished memory A tendency to "space out" or lose the thread of conversations Paranoia or irrational beliefs that one is in danger. This symptom may be more common among users with existing psychiatric problems or a predisposition to them. It's normal to be concerned about your teenager, but it is also normal for teens to go through rapid mood changes. At times, trying to keep track of your child's moods can seem like you are on a roller coaster. It is important to remember that teenagers are going through a lot of changes, both physically and emotionally. Some changes in behavior and mood are typical. Try doing some research or asking a trusted friend for advice in order to help you better understand your teen's actions. Even though your teen might not always acknowledge it, you are one of the most important people in his life. Your relationship is sometimes a big factor in why your teen behaves the way he does. Try to step back and objectively think about your relationship. Has anything changed recently? Is it possible that your teen is acting differently as a reaction to something that is going on in your home life? Although teens often behave in a confusing manner, not all of it can be chalked up to normal teenage angst. Pay close attention to all aspects of your child's life, while at the same time respecting their boundaries and growing independence. If the signs are all pointing to possible drug use, it might be time to be concerned. Also, check in with yourself. You know your child best. What does your gut tell you? Even if you think your child can do no wrong, make sure to realistically be aware of the signs.

Baking soda can help remove strange smells and stains from the bottle. It is particularly helpful if you have kept a sticky drink in the bottle, such as juice. Measure out one-fourth cup of baking soda, and pour it into the bottle. Measure out about an eighth cup of warm or hot water, and pour into the bottle. You can use hot water from the tap, but do not use boiling water, as this can melt the bottle. Screw the cap back onto the bottle. Shake or swirl the bottle to mix the solution together. This will also make sure that the solution spreads throughout the bottle. Fill the bottle with clean water from the tap, and dump it out. Keep doing this until there is no longer any baking soda left in the bottle. Once it is rinsed, let it dry upside down on a drying rack.
