My teen tested positive for marijuana and wants me to believe it is passive smoke from a party. Can that be true?
It would take a tremendous amount of passive smoke for a very long period of time to even remotely be considered as the cause of a positive THC drug test. Even then, it would be questionable. The larger question for you and your teen is, “Why did your kid or teen stay in a situation where the passive marijuana smoke was so thick that he thought he might turn up positive on a drug screen?” He would have had to stay in such a situation for a very long period of time (hours on end), and even then it is very doubtful that test results would be positive. We recommend that any positive drug screen result be treated as the kid or teen actively engaged in abuse of the drug. Remember, the objective of drug testing is not to punish your kid or teen, it is to prevent damage to their life by stopping the behavior or getting them appropriate treatment as soon as possible.
