drug use<\/a> starts affecting their functioning and they have issues such as skipping school or legal charges \u2014 an inpatient program for drug use is recommended, such as short-term residential treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cA 30-day program where they can live and breathe treatment and go through detox safely while not having any exposure to drugs or drug use can be helpful,\u201d Simms said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once your teen completes an inpatient program, they will need to re-enter life and establish new patterns gradually. An IOP could be an option during that time. You should strive to ensure your teen is compliant with their individual therapist and medication management after they\u2019ve been released from teen marijuana treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marijuana Presents a Challenge for You, the Parent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Considering the negative short- and long-term effects of marijuana use for teenagers, it\u2019s imperative you talk to your child about cannabis and keep an eye out for signs they\u2019re using it. If you suspect teen marijuana use \u2014 or any other drug use \u2014 get them help quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
