Well guys, welcome back to our space on net. So let´s start my swities :) for this 1st activity Lets talk about Drugs...
We all know that drug addiction is a very serious problem. How to avoid it? Perhaps you have been exposed to drugs since you were a small kid. Perhaps the exposure increased with time. Perhaps not.
There is a program in some American schools that lists eleven reasons why kids start on drugs.
1. Curiosity: people who want to try a new experience.
2. Peer pressure: a guy or a girl who will do everything that the others do in order to be accepted by the group.
3. Insecurity: a youngster who desires respect, a sense of identity with his or her friends; sometimes a desire for affection.
4. Boredom: Kids who lack excitement or challenge in their lives may see drugs as their answer.
5. Escape: if you are lonely, have problems, or feel like a looser, drugs can seem like a solution.
6. Defiance of authority: a feeling that can be directed against your parents, school, friends, or society in general.
7. Values: not understanding the importance of staying healthy.
8. Ignorance: not understanding the dangers of drug abuse.
9. Physical and emotional problems: people who take drugs to overcome some sort of pain or stress.
10.Stimulation: to get instant physical or mental energy.
11.Modeling: this means imitating what your parents do. If your parents take drugs, they are setting an example for you.
Do you know people who are in this list? Are you yourself in this list?
Talk to your friends. Discuss. And, most of all . WATCH OUT !!!
