Marijuana limits your brain's effectiveness, slows your thinking and impairs your coordination (Retrieved from www.abovetheinfluence.com ). If you smoke weed, there are many risks that come with it. Using marijuana at a young age can result in deficits of the brain. This basically means that your verbal and communication skills weaken, learning capabilities lower, and your attention span shortens. The earlier you start using marijuana, the more likely you are to become dependent on it, and even on other drugs. Also, it makes you break out and the scent sticks to your clothes and makes you smell. Smoking weed may also be hazardous to your developing lungs.
Some movies and music make "stoner" culture seem cool, natural and like it's no big deal (Retrieved from www.abovetheinfluence.com ). However, if your like me and being fit and getting good grades are important to you, smoking weed is a huge deal...
All drugs even weed are very bad for you. However people do it because they think it's cool and others are peer pressured into doing. However in the end it is all up to the person, whether they want to stay smart or become dumb and sickly.
ReplyDeleteExactly, but what they don't realize is that it ISN'T cool. People need to realize that.

All drugs are bad. I don't care if people smoke weed and they say it can't harm you. It's disgusting. --And when people say I smoke, becase YOLO. They're completely idiotic; Good Post.
ReplyDeleteIt really is disgusting. I really feel bad for the people who date people who smoke weed when they don't themselves. They're harming their partner along with themselves. Thanks

I agree with Annie that Marijuana is disgusting. How could people, especially teenagers, put harmful chemicals in their body? I know how it feels to be stressed out. I get stressed out nearly everyday at school, but I try to look at things on the bright side. Anyway, no one should smoke Marijuana because it is a very addictive drug. I think that the people that smoke it should get help right away because it is very harmful to their body. After all of this, I have one question. What is a "stoner" culture?
ReplyDeleteThank you. I agree with everything you said. A stoner is basically a chill person who believes that smoking weed is the perfect way to relax. If you still don't really get it, look up stoner on www.urbandictionary.com. It should help.

I think this was a well written post. You gave information that an average teenager would want to read about. Marijuana is avery good topic to discuss especially with teens dealing with peer pressure. Well Done!
ReplyDeleteThanks

I like the post you did on weed. It gives more information on it and it will prevent students from using it

Thanks, I'm hoping it will. I can proudly say I NEVER touched the stuff in my life, and I don't plan to.

This post is great, so many people are trying to get high and smoke now and it's horrible that they do it to "have some fun" or "get away." I see all over the stoner, grunge, or party look and think of it as ridiculous, glad this post agrees.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there's people out there who agree with me. Thanks.
