Teen drug abuse in Florida drops-Again!
Think back to your Junior High School Days. Not today…

And now, considering your teacher asked you to, you’re going to TELL THE TRUTH???
As a teenager I didn’t need a reason to lie…but that certain as hell would have given me one. You’re stoned or drunk or tripping. The survey showed nearly a third of the respondents used alcohol, 11.4 percent said they’d used marijuana and 10.6 percent said they smoked cigarettes.
All other drug usage was negligible.
On the surface…Great! A written survey. Hell, I was paranoid when I wasn’t stoned.
So I’m to belive that drug use among teenagers in Florida has decreased…considering THEY SAID SO???
Sorry. And now imagine a survey as its passed around the class. SUBSTANCE ABUSE
Teen drug abuse in Florida drops
TALLAHASSEE - (AP) — Teenage illegal drug use
Think. Jeb Bush said Tuesday as he announced the results of an annual survey of middle-and high-school students.
The Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey assessed lifetime drug usage and current usage among sixth- through 12th-graders across the state.
”We have worked to strengthen substance abuse prevention, and we have seen significant progress,” Bush said.
”Progress is being made,” he added, “but the work is not done.”
There has been a decrease in the use of heroin, Ecstasy and LSD, as well as in the use of cigarettes and alcohol, the survey found.
Alcohol is the most common substance of abuse among youth.
It was the fifth straight year that most types of drug use by Florida teens have dropped.
