Keeping Teens off Drugs
Drugs are more available today than they were 30 years ago and much more danger is involved. Pot is more potent and traces of coke may be added so the dealer can get a customer base. The price has gone way down and a kid or young adult can afford these drugs on a part time job.
Many police inforcement don't have the time to bust young offenders and give them a slap on the wrist. Parents need to complain, watch your neighborhood and keep complaining for drug dealers to be arrested. We have younger children at risk.
Call tip lines on dealers. This can be done without giving your name. Call from a pay phone if you do not want to be known but do something. I have personally had the police tell me a dealer 18 was harmless I had to go to the station and raise hell before the arrested him with drugs on him. I will continue to do so. Heroin help destroy my families life. I will fight this illegal sale of drugs for the rest of my life. Join me give me your story . Valerie

Do people even know?
Do you think people even know how prevelant heroin use is? I have 2 sons and 2 daughter-in-laws and 2 nephews who are heroin addicts. Like many others they started with pot and grauduated to any, and all other drugs. I was ignorant to their use...how can we give other parents the tools to know the signs of this horrible drug? If I had someone to wake me up and educate me then maybe I wouldn't be going through the hell of watching my sons kill themselves while knowing the hell they live in is even worse........
Heroin
No, I had no clue my daughter was using until she was getting bad. It is so cheap to buy that it is prevelant among teens. Valerie
