Many adults today refer to adolescence as a wonderful time, which was—even despite of its limitations—supposedly one of the best periods in their lives. Being a teenager is indeed great: you are young, a long life is ahead of you, and the world is waiting for you. However, sometimes parents face a problem: instead of enjoying youth and healthiness, their teenage son or daughter one day comes home high on pot (or something worse). If it happens once, it might be alright—teenagers often seek new experiences, and this particular case might be a mistake your teen will never repeat again. However, if a teenager is abusing substances regularly, there might be something wrong going on in his/her life.
