They can also get the munchies when they're high-and it's not exactly health food they binge on. They don't call that tire-shaped ring of flab around the middle of a pothead the "stoner's spare" for nothing.

Teens who use drugs are 5 times more likely to have sex than are those teens who do not use drugs. (CASA).

Drugs are TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!! Believe me. Just say NO. Don't even question it. Adults know what they're talking about when they educate us about drugs. They just want to help us and keep us safe, even thought we think they just don't want us to have fun. Maybe if my sister had listened good advice about drugs she wouldn't have overdosed on marijuana and she would still be here. Believe me, it's not worth it.

Smoking marijuana leads to changes in the brain that are similar to those caused by cocaine, heroin, or alcohol.

...One privilege that most parents do not use that can be a powerful reinforcer is access to brand name clothing. One consequence that we have used is to take a youth's "Brand name" clothing (e.g., Nike, Tommy Hilfiger, FUBU, etc.) and replace them with bland "no name" clothing contingent upon repeatedly passing urine tests.

There are a variety of things you can do to help your child say no to drugs. Many methods and suggestions are listed on TheAntiDrug.com.

Dr. Jeffrey Gardere recommends a simple role-play exercise (no acting classes needed) that you can practice with your kid that should drill the message and its importance into their heads.

Set up a couple of imaginary yet realistic scenarios in which your child can practice saying no. Here's one example you can use:

During a school dance, you and your date are approached by a couple of "homies" who have some "weed" and offer to share it to help you get your "groove on" and "party right." What do you do? How do you say no?

You as the parent, can structure their responses into four different sections:

As questions: "Why are you approaching me?" "Where did you get the joints?" "Did you buy them?" "Did you steal them?"
Practice ways to say no: Be firm; be committed. "No thanks." "Don't want any." "Get outta ma face." "I don't think it's a good idea."
Offer alternatives: "Why don't you put the joints away and let's just go in with a natural high."
Get out of Dodge: "I think I should leave." "I think you should leave."

Q. If you were in a club and somebody slipped a club drug into your drink, wouldn’t you realize it immediately?

A. Probably not. Most club drugs, like GHB, are odorless and tasteless. Some are made into a powder form that makes it easier to slip into a drink and dissolve without a person’s knowledge. That is why some of these drugs have been called “date rape” drugs—because there have been increasing reports of club drugs being used in sexual assaults.
