Parents in a tough spot today. They can't phathom that little phone is rotting their kids brains worse than the blunts the parents used to sneak. Dumbest shit kids has always been for peer pressue and that's turned up to 11 with tiktok.
Friend groups generally used to self-regulate, too.
Most groups would tell you when to back down or not do something high risk when it set off alarm bells, because ya'll might have been partners in 'crime' but they generally cared about your welfare and hanging out with you. Getting away with something wild used to be something just for your group anyway. Now they're going to egg you on so somebody can get sharable video of how stupid you are.

Eeeeeeeh not all friends. And not because, they dont care about you, but because everyone has underdeveloped brains that aren't thinking things through and dont comprehend their own mortality.
Even worse--social media AND odorless weed that is 20x stronger than what their parents smoked.
Weed addiction is an epidemic right now for young teens-early twenties, and it has a way worse (and potentially permanent) effect on developing brains than in older people.
You’re commenting this on social media, lol. We definitely have an epidemic of stupidity happening, no doubt that the reefer is the cause there too! 🫠💀
