Topic to use for paper: Your 13-year-old daughter tells you that she and her best friend are trying marijuana.
I need 4-5 pages in APA format not including the title or reference page. Must include at least four peer-reviewed journal references, two scholarly website references, and one current article in a popular-press magazine.
The paper involves presenting the issue, identifying the relevant psychological theories and concepts, summarizing the current research, and stating why the issue is important. Your summarization of current research must identify both sides of the arguments or all ways of dealing with the issue; for example, whether to mainstream or institutionalize children with Down syndrome. You must also discuss how you would deal with this "lot." The paper may not consist only of answers to these questions; it must be an integrated essay. You will tell the story from your point of view but will incorporate research about the topic that is informing your decision-making process.
