You can't make someone quit smoking Marijuana, but you can tell them you are worried about their use of it. Don't nag! Nagging only irritates the person, stresses them out and nine chances out of ten they smoke Marijuana to 'chill out' and relax so guess what .... they're going to be stressed out by your nagging and take more Marijuana. Say your piece and then leave it alone. This is something personal to the person smoking Marijuana and they have to find their own time in quitting.

AnswerGive them an alternative. Let them know how it makes you feel, and why. Have a serious discussion, that involves listening to them, about why they smoke. If they are willing to stop, but are having difficulties, offer support, let them know your willing to help. Once they have stopped, it is very important to be there for them, as the leading cause of returning to substance abuse is boredom and friends that still smoke. Take the person out to do things that will distract him from smoking, as sitting on the couch watching tv will surely bring up an urge to smoke a wee joint. Make an effort to offer these alternatives even if it causes you a bit of trouble, if they speak to you of being bored, think of something, and go do it, even if it's a bit inconveniant. The one thing to remember is that you cannot MAKE them stop, you can make them stop wanting to smoke around you, or make them want to lie to you about it, that's easy, but you cant make them stop, this is a decision the user must come to himself, you can offer help and advice, which is still VERY important and helpful, but even if you cant help now because they don't want help, make sure they know it's there when they need it, and make sure you don't alienate yourself from them by being inflexible and pushy. i'ma stop ranting now...

Answer 4

Try to understand why people are smoking marijuana in the first place. If you don't understand and relate to their reasons for smoking pot, you will have a very small chance in stopping them.

Instead of wasting your time fighting a losing battle (millions of people smoke marijuana, and they're not going to stop just because YOU tell them to) why don't you just mind your own business and let other people live their lives the way they choose to. If they want you to start imposing your beliefs on them, I'm sure they'll ask you. You are not entitled to interfere in other people's private lives just because you don't approve of the way they live.
