DONT LEARN THE HARD WAY
The DrugSmart/iPod combination is designed to easily enable junior high and high school students, as well as their parents, to discretely access, (either alone or with friends), information that would tell them that along with the so called "fun" comes the real and distinct possibility of serious health risks and/or death...
SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
You are hanging out with some people after school and someone asks you if you want to try something called a "Happy Stick" and maybe start to think to yourself ”Hmmm, Happy Stick huh? Doesn’t sound too bad and I sure could use some extra happy today." So, because you don’t know what a happy stick really is, you go ahead and try it. BUT! What if you knew before you tried it that a "happy stick" was just one of the many street names for PCP, an extremely dangerous drug, with many dangerous side effects
that can include feelings of depression and sadness when the PCP starts to wear off, even to the point where some people consider killing themselves. WOULD A HAPPY STICK STILL SOUND LIKE A GOOD IDEA?
