I saw a show this week about a Teenage Girl and a Teenage Boy,
one Black and one White. The show involved illegal drugs and in
the end both Teens died. It broke my heart because it was the
senseless, waste of Life, way to die and they were so young.

Many illegal drugs were around when I was a Teenager and it's
progressively gotten worst with many more dangerous mixtures
and way too many more deaths...among them Diabetics.

I put this article here since Young People are more vulnerable and
too often, subject to bad influence, peer pressure, threats. Many
Adults of course, became addicted when they were Young and
unfortunately, some of them are deceased and many still are addicted.

It's definitely getting worse. They start at marijuana then move to medical marijuana then move to pain pills then to the hardcore stuff-heroin, blow, crack, meth, acid....Really sad, I saw my brother go through rehab and a place similar to a halfway house and he still is having a hard time staying away.
