Parents Give Autistic Son Marijuana

I recently found a news item where parents were giving their nine year old son medical marijuana to help him cope with Autism.  According to the parents the marijuana is helping him cope.The parents give their son the medical marijuana through marijuana tea and marijuana oil based cookies.  According to the story the child comes home from school every day wanting his “tea and cookies” because of gut pain caused by anxiety.  His parents claim they did not tell him what the stuff they were giving him was.

Before trying Medical Marijuana Jay, the nine year old son would eat non food items.  He has been known to eat his own shirt, as well as blankets.  Apparently now he has stopped eating non food items according to his parents.  In school Jay is taking part in ABA.  Before marijuana he would have 30-50 aggressions a day at another student or teacher.  Now he has reached days where there are none.
