Dear Abby: Marijuana

Question

Dear Abby,
I am very concerned about my friend Sue. She told me that she smoked weed with her older brother. First of all, what is weed? Is it legal? What are the effects? What should I do if she asks me to try it with her? I am very upset. Please tell me everything I need to know.
You Friend
Upset

So for homework I have to write a well-develop paragraph replying this letter (this is a worksheet). I have a few questions.

What is weed? (just a one sentence definition)
Is it Iegal (to be honest I really don't know)?
Is there a website for middle school students (8th grade health) about the effects of marijuana?
The last question Abby asked me is for me to answer since it's a response.

Please help. Thank You! :)
