Teenagers (in the US) before they go to college pretty typically at least try weed and alcohol at some point. Whether or not they tell their parents is a different story entirely

I was on a student exchange in the US at age ~15 and was offered both weed and alcohol. Funnily enough, weed seemed to be easier to get since dealers don't care about your age. For alcohol you needed to find someone older than 21 who'd buy it for you.

  • Yeah I definitely knew more stoners in high school than kids who regularly drank. I think drinking is harder to hide tbh. Once you learn how to deal with weed smell you can usually be more discreet.
