In my kids heath class they told him Cannabis causes cancer and aggression. As long as they are lying to the kids they cannot get any credibility. The dangers of alcohol are very very serious. Alcohol, in fact, does cause cancer and lots of other stuff too. Putting a tampon up your ass is a red flag kids. Figure out a better way to cope and have fun.
