Discussion Questions:As a school counselor, how do you believe you would handle a student in your middle school telling you he smokes marijuana on the weekends? Consider the Pause for Reflection activity from your textbook on page 256. "Value discussions about legal and illegal mood-altering substances evoke strong reactions from most people in our culture. Your own experiences and choices obviously will play a role in your considerations about dangerousness and parental rights to know" (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2007, p. 256) What if you discovered this student parents were providing the marijuana to him? What if you were personal friends of the child's parents? What if it was alcohol instead of marijuana? Or what if it was Ecstacy or methamphetamines the child was using? How would this change how you might handle the situation?
