Weekly Updates!

As any new information is discovered we will keep you up to date right here. Prescription Drug Abuse is growing issue with scattered information and statistics. We will source out current information and do our best to keep you up to date on this issue.

By continuing to educate ourselves, we can start to knock this issue out at the main source, our homes. If we have better security for our own medications and destroy old prescriptions, we can begin to wipe out the source of where young people are getting most of the products.

If you have any ideas of comments to share about your own experiences please do not hesitate to do so. By continuing to discuss this problem we can work together and stop it from growing!

"90% of prescription drug addictions start in teenage years" (drugfree.org)

50 years ago there were no mass produced prescription drugs.  Millions of teens are becoming addicted to prescription drugs today and we need to figure out who is responsible for this issue.  In one breath we tell our children that they require these drugs, and in another tell them that drug addiction is wrong.  Drug addiction is wrong and drugs should only be used for proper medical purposes.

If 90 percent of drug addictions start in teenage years as stated by drugfree.org, then it is our adult responsibility to stop this problem where it begins, and teach our children the possible future affects of this drug abuse.
