Teens and Marijuana Abuse

WEEKEND RADIO PODCAST:

As states legalize marijuana for medical and recreational purposes, teens and pre-teens are more susceptible than ever to falling in with this increasingly accepted culture. This week on Parenting Today’s Teens with Mark Gregston, a Heartlight student gives us a glimpse into the world of teen drug use—and the heart-issues behind the behavior.


Mark and Jan Gregston started Heartlight, a residential counseling center for struggling teens, 25 years ago with hopes of providing a place for parents to turn when their teen turns away from them.  You can find out more about Heartlight by visiting www.heartlightministries.org.
