What’s Dabbing?
Dabbing involves extracting the THC (the part that gets you high) from the cannabis plant. Users place a small amount of this concentrate (shatter, Butane Hash Oil, hash, wax, budder, honey, etc.) into a heating element called a dab rig or vape pen and breathe in the cloud of cannabinoids produced as the concentrate sizzles. Today, high-potency concentrates make up about 30% of products in a dispensary.
What is the point of dabbing? Dabbing is a fast way to get very high, because it’s extremely potent. It’s a chemical, not a plant. It only takes a second or two, and in that time a substantial amount of THC can be inhaled. The problem? If teens dab illegally, their brains are still forming, and marijuana has been proven to cause psychosis, mental illness, and increased suicidal ideation. Sadly, we know there is a direct correlation between adolescent marijuana use and suicide rates.

Laura Wrote the Book about Dabbing 
As part of her mission to educate parents and their teenagers about the dangers of Dabbing, Laura wrote The Dangerous Truth About Marijuana: Johnny Stack’s Life and Death Story. The book gives a detailed picture of how this happy, handsome, and intelligent young man became hooked on marijuana which lead to other drugs, and eventually his death. It also gives facts, details, and examples from a number of experts on this subject to help you clearly understand the dangers.
