Why Do Sally & Johnny Use Drugs?

By Alan I. Leshner, Ph.D., Director, National Institute of Drug Abuse, National Institutes of Health

(NAPS) - Now that their children have returned to school, right at the top of virtually every parent's concerns is the fear that their children might become innvolved with drugs.

And they're right to be concerned. Whether in cities, suburbia or rural communities, whether in wealthy or poor neighborhoods, drugs are now readily available to all young people.

And even the seemingly nerdiest kids can speak with apparent fluency & familiarity about marijuana, cocaine, heroin & such strange-sounding things as blunts, ecstasy, roofies, Special K & crystal meth.

Drugs are an equal opportunity destroyer. 50% of young people have used an illegal drug by the time they leave high school. What's a parent to do?

How can you predict if your children are going to use drugs? What can you do to prevent it?

How can you help them once they've started using?
