Detecting Children's Drug Use
A recent study suggests that parents are often unaware of their children's drug use. Here are some warning signs parents should look out for:
Higher incidences of sass-mouth
Child begins using slang such as "groovy," "hepcat," and "23 skidoo"
Happiness, creativity
Becomes very jittery when watching Mad Money With Jim Cramer
Displays glazed eyes and sullen mood whenever parents initiate long discussions about the problems with drugs
Tracks used needles all over the house
Son is type of kid who wears shorts in dead of winter
Child no longer shows interest in taking the Ritalin, Paxil, and Adderall you already have him on
