Set the example
It’s no secret that you are your child’s biggest role model. From the time they are in diapers, our kids are watching our every move, and processing our words, actions and gestures to establish their own behaviors. So it makes sense that a child may pick up their best – and worst – habits from a parent or guardian.
Encouraging your child to stay away from marijuana starts by setting the example:
Consider Quitting
If you currently use marijuana, it’s time to consider quitting. Remember that you aren’t alone, and neither is your child. Find resources to quit in the ‘Resources and help’ section.
Marijuana-Free Homes
Ensure that your home stays free of marijuana so your child is safe from secondhand marijuana smoke and products.
