Drug use among teens has reached tragic levels. It Doesn’t matter how on top of it you are, your teens are going to be introduced to drugs at school, the very place you think should be a safe environment. Mrs. Reagan’s ‘Just say no to drugs’ campaign was a complete failure. The fact is that teens perceive adults as old fuddy-duddies that don’t know their head from a hole in the ground. Adults, try as they may, face a bitter war in protecting their kids from the ravaging effects of drugs.
The challenge is made more difficult by the fact that most of us have prescription drugs in our cupboards. When confronting the issue of teenagers and drugs, you have to present a rational argument that distinguishes between necessary medications and illegal drugs. This isn’t easy. Some well known prescription medicines are being sold at school as a way to get high. Kids don’t know that these medications are issued in duplicate or triplicate, as a method to control the use of specific narcotics. Not having experienced a real need for these drugs themselves, they may well come to the conclusion that their parents are enjoying some high that they are for some reason being denied.
