This is Dr. Laura. The call of the day is coming right up after this message from my sponsor.

I wanted to know why some people who get COVID-19 get it so bad.

I found out it may be because they have a high risk factor, such as heart disease, diabetes,

being overweight, smoking, and asthma. Even if symptoms feel mild, these factors can increase your

risk of COVID-19 turning severe. So if you're at high risk and test positive,

there are things you can do, like asking your health care provider if an authorized

oral treatment is right for you. Learn about an option at treatcovid19.com. This message is

sponsored by Pfizer. Thank you for listening to this edition of the call of the day. Be sure to

listen to my program Monday through Friday now heard on Sirius XM Triumph 2011.

Sarah, welcome to the program. What's up? Hi, okay. So my son is 13. He recently

texted me from a friend's house just asking if I could pick him up early.

And when I picked him up, I could tell he was acting really different. And I knew it was up.

And I waited for him, and maybe five minutes and he still came all my hands to tell you,

I did something bad. And he admitted to smoking marijuana. He said he hated it. Well,

it was snarkly smoking. It was, I guess, a edible or something like a gummy. But one of the kids got

from stole from their from their parent's stash or something. So I'm wanting to do the right thing.

And I know he did something wrong, but yet he came to me and was honest. So I just wanted to get

your thoughts on how to help. First thought is you call the parents of the other kids and tell them

one of these is getting it from either you or somebody else and it's illegal. And the police can

be called and you might want to call the police and report this because these are all minors.

And if a major gave any of this to a minor and the minor used it, it's an illegal act.

So yeah, me, I would call the police. That's nice. I remember asking you when it happened. No, I don't.
