My friend has been doing weed and smoking cigs since she was in 6th grade. Abuse of her brother. I want her to quit cause she's throwing he life away. nd idk how to get he to stop she does it everyday and I care about her. I try to get her to stop but she doesn't. I need help. :/

Same thing's happened to a few of my friends. A lot of people who smoke pot don't think there's anything wrong with it but I've seen at least 5 people change because of it. I would say contact her parents

Problem is her family knows she does it and her mom buys her cigs everyday. Idk what to do

what about a grandparent

Supports her for doing it.

have an intervention.

Try get her interested in activities like sports or something else that she can replace those unhealthy addictions with.

I don't know what else to suggest unless you have a drug counselor at school.

only other thing i can think of id the cops which may not be a good option

Calling the cops may not be a bad idea. If this person really is a friend then scaring them straight might be a way to show that you care about them,.

If noone in the family cares, then the police comes in.
If you want to do what's best for her, tell the cops or have an intervention.
If not, let her smoke her weed. I neevr seen anyone die smoking weed. Some people actually get funnier and nicer while high.
