In today’s episode of Embracing Your Season, Paige shares an interview from her recent trip to AACC (American Association of Christian Counselors) in Dallas, TX with Dr. Linda Mintle. Dr. Linda has a Ph.D. in Urban Health and Clinical Psychology and is a national expert on mental health. She is also an author, speaker, professor, media personality and Licensed Therapist
Host of the Dr. Linda Mintle Radio Show. Today, Paige and Dr. Mintle discuss the unknown dangers behind marijuana use and why it is especially dangerous for teens and young adults. More and more research studies are being conducted and the results are shocking. As parents, being educated on this issue is vital to engaging in thoughtful conversations with our teens.
Paige’s Takeaways
- Marijuana is NOT harmless.
- The marijuana that people are ingesting today has a completely different potency level than back in the 60s and 70s.
- Don’t allow fear to dominate the way you educate your kids. We must model good behavior and choices, get educated as a parent, and give the “why” behind why we don’t partake in certain things.
