Substance Abuse

TODAY, APRIL 11 2010 3-5PM, I ATTENDED THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE MEETING IN TOWN HALL. I GUESS THE COMMUNITY, MANITOU SPRINGS, IS WORRIED THAT KIDS OF ALL AGES ARE THREATEN AND MAY START TO USE DRUGS AND ALCOHOL. THIS SUBJECTED IS IMPORTANT IN MY EYES. ONE OF THE QUESTIONS ASKED BY PEOPLE AT THE MEETING WAS, WHAT DO YOU THINK DRUGS AND ALCOHOL WILL DO TO THE COMMUNITY. IN MY OPINION THE USE OF MAINLY DRUGS LIKE MARIJUANA IS A CHAIN, WHEN ONE KID USES IT, OTHERS ARE INFLUENCED BY IT SO THEY TRY IT, ONCE THEY TRY IT OTHER, THEN OTHERS, THEN OTHERS, THEN OTHERS. ITS SAD THAT KIDS HAVE TO SEE PEOPLE THROW THEIR LIVES AWAY. THEN THEY GAVE AWAY PRIZES AND MY FRIEND DAN WON A LAP TOP
