There are many 1iteratures that offer insight on substance abuse treatment, yet very few have targeted specific treatment protocol for youths. Marijuana is the national youth drug of choice. Our society has a very liberal view of marijuana. As a result, we generally tend to undermine the serious problems of marijuana addiction among our youths. Marijuana is undoubtedly a major gateway drug to other letha1 drugs, but its ability to stymie ambition, productivity, and hope among youths continues to receive second-hand consideration in our national social problems. Many youths abuse marijuana, yet there are no treatment programs specifically targeted to treating marijuana-addicted youths. As medical marijuana movement gathers momentum nation-wide, it is imperative that we prepare for potential consequences of the misconceptions of medical marijuana. A recent CNN poll indicated that 75% of Americans favor legalizing medical marijuana with a view to taxing its sales and using the money to defray medication cost for seniors. This perverse intent to hide a bad motive underneath a good one if allowed to materialize wou1d have far-reaching consequences. Marijuana Impaired Youths is a c1inical handbook intended to educate the general public about the implicit and explicit dangers inherent in marijuana use and abuse. The book epitomizes the culmination of twelve years of clinica1 experience in working with marijuana abusing youths. The main objective of the book is to offer a desktop reference for addiction counselors, mentors, school counselors, teachers and parents for working with youths. The book uses vivid vignettes of real life clinical literary sketches to illustrate the challenge, cognitive damage, discomfiture and distortion a marijuana abusing youth faces. Most importantly, the sketches offer serious professional insight on how to confront and treat youths who abuse marijuana. The ultimate goal of the author is to educate counselors, youth mentors, teachers and parents on the dangers of marijuana.
