| Summary: |
It’s sometimes hard for teens to see the damage that drugs cause — there's drug addiction, of course, but there’s a whole lot more. Families, the medical system, the environment. Innocent kids, caught in the crossfire. Drivers killed or injured by those under the influence. Babies found at meth labs, their toys covered with chemicals. Victims of terrorists, whose acts are financed with drug profits. This site gives teens the complete picture of the consequences of drug use. |
