Teenager=rapidly developing brain.

Add to that a psychoactive drug.

Psychosis is a logical possibility

I have a cousin that started using drugs stolen from his mother in his early teens. In his late teens he started using Marijuana.

In his early twenties he developed Schizophrenia.

A sad, sad outcome for a bright young man. His disease is somewhat controlled today with other drugs. He can take care of himself but is incapable of working.

He does still suffer from paranoia.

If your children experiment with marijuana do your best to discourage the use.
