Red Ribbon Week Fact of the day:  A recent student found that people who began smoking marijuana heavily in their teens lost an average of how many points in IQ between age 13 and age 38?  (8 points…Most importantly, the lost abilities were not fully restored in those who quit smoking marijuana as adults. Marijuana use in adolescence leads to reduced brain activity, difficulty in learning, and decreases in memory.) [www.abovetheinfluence.com]
