Wisdom

What I would tell my kids when they are at the age to have an experience in drugs is, honestly everyone has a hard time in some part of there life, but drugs are not the route to chose. I would never want any of my kids to part take in drugs of any sort of drug. There are so many drugs and so many people who die from them each year. One of the main things I would say is " Don`t listen to anyone who say`s you wont get hurt, because they feel great and they make you cool. I would tell them to stay as far away from alcohol as they can, because alcohol is almost just as bad. Hundreds of people die each year from use of alcohol.

Main ideas that I would share with them would be. I would answer any question that they wanted to know about drugs or at least tell them as much as I know. I would try to keep drugs and alcohol away from my kids as much as possible. Normally in some school`s there is always one person that would influence drugs or alcohol to who ever they can. Telling and showing my kids pictures of what could happen to you if you start to use different drugs. Drugs really effect people`s lives and ruin them. I would never want to lose a child to any sort of street drug because I could never imagine losing a child.

Heroin

My opinion about this article is that it really shows you what could happen after using the street drug called Heroin. This article shows you that heroin is a strong drug that many people take advantage of. It may effect you by killing you, but it also effected the people that lose you.

This article shows you how families feel after they lose someone so important to them. Also some people think that it`s just a drug, like the article said " Parents need to know it does not go away over night" this drug is serious and is extremely dangerous. A lot of people think that a short period of time in rehab will cure every problem. Recovering from an addition to Heroin can be extremely tough.

Friday Brain Day

1.) Two donuts. Take three donuts on one side and three donuts on the other side and see if any of the sides are heavier. If none of the sides are lower then the other side, the donut that is heavier is on the scale. Then take the two donuts that are not on the scale and measure them both. If one is heavier then you found the donut that is the heaviest. Therefore you can only measure two at a time.

2.) I think if you roll snake eyes two times in a row, you might have a 50-50 chance of rolling them again. Unless the dice is loaded, meaning set to go on a certain point or number.

3.) To flip the triangle upside down but only be able to move three pennies, you would need to flip only the top penny and the bottom two pennies. You would put the two bottom pennies to the top of the triangle, and bring the top one down.

4.) You would have to put the squares on the outer layer but all together you would have 12 squares. The black squares are smaller then the white ones are bigger.

5.) There should be 96 games played in all, because at least one team will lose one game against each other.

For or Againest

My opinion on Marijuana would be, I don`t think Marijuana is "cool". As everyone else knows it by as " smoking weed". Although it may not be the most damaging drug of them all, it still is not the best drug for you to use. I am against using any drugs.

I believe that most kids are addicted to the feeling, more then the drug itself. Side effects of Marijuana can cause dry mouth, red eyes, lung problems, and your basic mental functioning. I think this drug is too easy for kids to get a hold of it, and thats why most kids are taking advantage of it.

It`s one thing if you were prescribed medical marijuana, but if kids even adults are using it for fun. There was once a time when I thought smoking weed would be cool because everyone would smoke it. Honestly I believe that kids who smoke weed start to use harder drugs in the future because they like the feelings that they get and want to try more and more. I am 100% against the use of Marijuana

Monday`s Assignment

 Reason`s people smoke cigarettes

1.) Peer Pressure
2.) Social Rewards
3.) Risk-taking Behaviors
4.) Parental Influence
5.) Misinformation
6.) Genetic Predisposition
7.) Advertising
8.) Self-medication
9.) Media Influences
10.) Stress Relief

My opinion about smoking is, I think it should be illegal. So many people die each year because of lung cancer, and second hand smoke. Smoking has always grossed me out. There has been times that a few of my old friends would try to convince me that it was fun and calmed you down. Smoking causes yellow teeth and also bad breath.

Although people may think that it calms you down, I highly disagree. I have once tried it under peer pressure and I know for a fact that I will never try it again. I grew up learning that smoking is bad for you, and that`s how I will always remember it. I will never again pick up a cigarette.
