Leslie then says that she has been feeling very lonely and sad lately and asks if smoking a “ joint”(i.e., marijuana cigarette ) to help her relax will be harmful to Milton. You are unsure how you answer Leslies question. What should you do? What can you say to her? Who can she turn to for help in your community
