Experimentation with drugs has been part of human behavior for many millennia. Although media reports may indicate otherwise, regular drug use among youth is limited.
Many things that can be done to fight youth drug abuse. Make sure individuals with character are a barrier to youth getting dangerous drugs. Drug dealers are enablers and obviously could care less about age. Give children real facts about drugs so they will trust authority figures.

My younger brother was turned onto meth at the age of 13 by some neighbors and hasn't been right since. He's now in prison and is an intelligent, sweet guy that will have to wait years for a second chance. He feels very strongly in his heart that he wants to do the right thing and has had to learn this lesson the hard way. It's very hard to see a sibling go through this.

I think doctors should stop diagnosing children with ADHD or AADH or whatever, and that medication Ritalin that's 100 times worst than any street drug. If you look at all those students going around shooting their classmates up weather is it be college or high school, all those kids were on Ritalin or a drug similar to it.
In most cases those kids don't even have attetion problems. Sometimes they have poor parents.

I have no theory, i could say hashish, yet unsure. Is Heroin nonetheless the best drug to do maximum harm to the physique? There seem such a large style of drugs around those days, that individuals do no longer understand what they are taking or what the area consequences are. maximum suitable for individuals to circumvent all drugs except they are given by using the well-being practitioner.

You know, what teenager doesn't feel like an outcast. Where are the parents here? They have to accept some of the blame, like it or not. Some parents are so involved in what their spouse is doing, chasing after them, or whatever, that they are sometimes blind to their children. Kick the parents in the *** - or fine them, and half the problem would be nipped in the bud. Your children should feel that they can talk to you and that you will respect them as individuals, not as underlings. You can tell your children until you are blue in the face that they can talk to you and tell you anything, but your actions speak louder than words, and they aren't hearing you because your actions are to busy screaming at them!

well what kind of drugs are you talking about?? If you are referring to crack, cocaine, meth, heroine, cigarettes, alcohol - then they are problems because those types of drugs can be addicting and can lead to financial problems and health problems. They could end up on the streets because of their addictions and because they feen. They may even become violent if they don't get their drug.
If you are referring to marijuana though, well you will see a lazy youth. BUT, you won't see violent feens running around everywhere homeless. They might not be very ambitious individuals, but it won't be a problem for them to quit either. Marijuana is the least of our problems. I have NEVER met a violent stoner, nor have I heard about marijuana related crashes.

causes vary from area to area. some areas is purely for the money . other areas it just for show. be the guy to see for some stuff. its thought to be cool . effects are 19 year olds running around with 50s an 100s in there back pockets driving fancy cars an dressing cool then there the guys who wind up in prison , still cool to them . that eventually looses its appeal . when they are in their 30s and have nothing but a prison record to show for their life's accomplishments not that cool any more

a lot of it is because of youth and curiosity. home life has a lot to do with it, also being an outcast. some people are actually better people when they are high, but that makes them weird when they're not. i dunno, maybe to be cool, show out for people, for some it's a lifestyle, for some it's a creative tool. how do you think incubus came up with the album fungous amongous. the whole album was based on shrooms and pot. go fig, huh?

They lose out on real life and have regrets about it later. you only get one chance to stay clean. Once you alter your brain you will never know what you might have become
most of the cause is the boredom of teen life and peer pressure to try something "cool".
They dont really know its cool but they just don't want to try it alone so they want to drag you down with them.
