A Resource About Your Child and Drugs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have a teenager you love that comes fully equipped these days with
a driver's license and an available car, some statistics may give you cause
for concern. Nearly half of all deaths in the age range of 15 to 19 are the
result of auto accidents in which alcohol was a contributory factor. More
frightening still is the fact that 3 million children aged 14 to 17 are
problem drinkers, according to a brochure published by the American Academy of
Pediatrics. It is a brochure you must read for it is filled with other
similar statistics as well as suggestions on how to deal with the problem of
alcohol and drug abuse in our youngest population. It is easy enough to
obtain and it is free. Just send a stamped self addressed business sized
envelope to; Alcohol Brochure, Dept. C, American Academy of Pediatrics, P.O.
Box 927, Elk Grove Village IL. 60009-0927, to receive your copy of "Alcohol:
Your Child and Drugs". The information you gain may save the life of a young
loved one.
