Drugs & Alchohol (Gustavo)

Explain if you think drugs and alcohol are a problem for teens now days or if its just part of growing up. When does drugs become a problem? Are drugs life changing? (should we do anything to prevent teens from taking drugs?

We should do everything we can to prevent teens from drugs.
 Many teens try alcohol, tobacco, or drugs. Some teens try these substances only a few times and stop. Others can't control their urges or cravings for them. This is substance abuse. Teens may try a number of substances, including cigarettes, alcohol, household chemicals (inhalants), prescription and over-the-counter medicines, and illegal drugs. Teens use alcohol more than any other substance. Marijuana is the illegal drug that teens use most often; this is a problem Teens see in the world. This has nothing with growing up. In case teens shouldn’t see this things. These things are the cause of death, drug abuse, & making bad decisions. Trying drugs and alcohol is a gamble and there is no way to tell in advance whether or not you will develop an addiction. Teens are not too young to become addicts. Anybody who uses drugs or alcohol can become addicted. Addiction gets ugly very fast. Signs that an addiction is reaching a breaking point include; lying, stealing, drastic mood swings, changes in grooming habits or appearance, quitting extracurricular activities, negative changes in grades and hanging out with new friends. We should all work together in give drug text to the people who are giving this sign’s of addiction. In make sure the students in Wyandotte are safe from Drugs.

  1. I liked the fact that you used advanced vocabulary. Also, you stayed on topic and gave reason on how those thins can ruin a teens life. What I saw was that you didn't answer the last question. You were also pretty much repeating what you were saying and not going more further by giving better reasons. Other than that you did great! :)

  2. Well it depends on how old teens are, and where they're at, and what kind of drug. because if a 16 year old does marihuana in his room, he doesnt hurt nobody. i think older than 16+ should have the freedom to do what they wish, as long as they dont harm anyone. alcohol, if they can control it, then theres no problem. ;)

  3. Alcohol, should be allowed for people who can control it. if you know how to take care of your surroundings, and you wont do harm, then i think it should be allowed..preferbly for 16+. and parties would boring without alcohol!!
