One of the most striking findings was that teenagers who perceived their parents as accepting or neutral towards cannabis were significantly more likely to have tried the drug themselves. Specifically, those whose parents did not express strong opposition to cannabis use were four times more likely to report having used it. This correlation suggests that parental attitudes play a crucial role in shaping adolescent behavior regarding drug use, but controlling a narrative in their kids reality may be more important than pretending you can stop certain behaviors.
