The only problem I have with your friend's situation is the fact that he is a 7th grader. The only reason that is bad is that he is going to be dumb and get himself caught at some point.

Assuming that all 7th graders would do dumb things. The good ol' age = maturity argument.
Not that I don't think it's a bit young to start smoking even though it's basically harmless.

I referring to the scientifically proven fact that younger people don't have fully developed brains and tend to be less rational and take greater risks.
the FBI will burst down his $150 door, step all over his rare bear rugs, put cold, unsanitized, hand cuffs on his wrists and take him to an abusive jail filled with gay people called the sisters. then he will convince a person named red to give him a rock hammer which he will then use to escape.

Dont be a snitch, if you really want to do something, tell the parents thats all. Let them handle thier child especially in this situation.
You cant die from weed unless you smoke your body wieght all at once, btw same thing will happen with any substance. Worest thing that happens he falls asleep and get a damn good night sleep.
I had a guy who we would never had expected to smoke weed start smoking it. Thing about weed is, it's not a hard drug, and isn't as bad as one might think. The drug will never affect his life. The rumours about it being a "gateway drug" aren't true.
The people he will hang out with though will change him up though. If you know anything about the weed heads that he started to hang out with, expect him to become one of them. Expect you will eventually lose him as a friend as the pull to the other group will become stronger then your pull is. He will become rebellious, since he is also being pulled away from family. The drug isn't a gateway drug, but the people might make him want to try harder things.
Otherwise, smoking weed alone is a weird but harmless use, simply because the danger resides with potheads, not with pot itself.
Don't report it. Bad idea. Thing about life is you need to solve problems like this yourself. And in this case, there's nothing much you can do. Simply telling him your feelings about the drug, and his new friends might help him understand your point of view.
What? Where did you read that? Source please? I agree with the non bolded part. I've heard of people getting psychologically addicted to caffeine, but I haven't heard of people getting physically affected by quitting caffeine.
Though I hate to side with this guy, his statement does have some merit. Stimulants like caffeine act as dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. In some extreme cases, the body begins to react to these raised synaptic neurotransmitter levels by not producing its own. If the caffeine supply stops, the levels plummet. Severe depression can set in.
This is almost never seen with a stimulant like caffeine though. Usually coke or amphetamines.
What people do is there own business and you should stay out of it.
I agree. So many people here are so willing to rat their friends out.
You don't know the guy's situation. He could just be casual smoker. It's pretty common.
Calling the cops on him at this stage would only **** him over.
If it was one of my close friends then i would try and stop him if it doesn't work then i will just report it and act innocent if he thinks i reported him.
In my mind i'm doing him a favour.
In his mind i'm messing up his life.

Yeah. I mean, the 'dobbing in' thing only works when you're dealing with an absolutely hopeless drug addict. The type of situation where you can honestly say police intervention and forced rehabilitation are the only way to go.
This situation doesn't call for any of that.

7th
Grade
A 12 year old smoking weed? Report him.
A person who admits when they run out of arguments on the internet? Wow, first I saw an original topic for once, then this? Today is a good day.

I started in 7th grade, too. What's your point?

Kids dont do drugs
TROLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOSorry, but cannabis doesn't work like cigarettes do; you won't throw up if smoke a **** ton of it, you'll just get really, really high.

(Caffeine is physically addictive.)
