Drugs and Alcohol
  • By Desiree Magby

3
DRUGS
  • There are all different kinds of drugs and they
    all do different things like amphetamines cause
    the user to feel more confident, talkative and
    cheerful. Concentration is increased but this is
    usually only with simple repetitive tasks. It is
    used in clubs as a dance stimulan
  • Methamphetamine is an addictive stimulant
    drug. made in clandestine laboratories from
    chemicals such as battery acid, gasoline and
    drain cleaner. Crystal meth is a more
    concentrated form of meth that is smoke able.
  • A more dangerous and potentially life-threatening
    pressure teens face is drugs. The first and most
    commonly available is marijuana.

4
Marijuana Affects
  • 56 percent had first used the drug by fourteen
    years of age, and 26 percent had begun by twelve
    years of age (Kids and Marijuana).
  • Some of the signs teenagers exhibit when using
    marijuana are dizziness and trouble walking, red
    bloodshot eyes, trouble remembering things that
    just happened, and they often appear silly and
    giggly for no apparent reason.

5
Marijuana Affects
  • The way marijuana affects each teen depends on
    several factors including
  • How strong the marijuana is
  • What the user expects to happen
  • Whether the user is drinking alcohol or using
    other drugs
  • The users previous marijuana consumption
  • Where the drug is used

6

Alcohol
  • Many teenagers live with a parent that is an
    alcoholic, a person physically and emotionally
    addicted to alcohol. Alcoholism has been around
    for centuries, yet no one has discovered an easy
    way to prevent or stop it. Alcoholism continues
    to cause anguish not only for the person who
    drinks, but for everyone who is involved with
    that person.
  • According to National Council on Alcoholism
    and Drug Dependence (NCADD), there are about 14
    million americans who are considered problem
    drinkers (including 8 million who have
    alcoholism) about 76 million people who are
    exposed to alcoholism in there family. The rates
    of drinking is going up, and they also tell that
    people who live with alcoholic family members are
    not alone.

Peer Pressure
By Desiree Magby

Dealing with peer pressure
  • There are all kinds of peer pressure. All peer
    pressure isnt just bad pressure there is also
    good pressure.
  • It is tough to be the only one who says "no" to
    peer pressure, but you can do it.
  • Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs
    about what is right and wrong can help you know
    the right thing to do. Inner strength and
    self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk
    away, and resist doing something when you know
    better.

9
Defining Peer Pressure
  • Peers influence your life, even if you don't
    realize it, just by spending time with you. You
    learn from them, and they learn from you.
  • The social influence a peer group exerts on its
    individual members, as each member attempts to
    conform to the expectations of the group

10
Examples of Peer Pressure
  • Teenagers try drugs for many reasons including
    relaxation, socializing, curiosity or peer
    pressure. Alcohol, tobacco and cannabis are the
    most commonly used drugs by teenagers.
  • Everybody, no matter what age, is faced with
    pressure to 'fit in'. In our teenage years this
    pressure can be even stronger because no one
    wants to feel like an outsider.
  • Nowadays we often hear about peer groups and how
    peers influence people. Everyone in the world
    belongs to a peer group. They are not only for
    kids.

11
Drugs and Peer Pressure
  • Finding out all about different drugs, from the
    effects to the risks involved, can help you to
    resist any pressure and make a sensible choice.
    As your understanding grows, so too will your
    confidence when it comes to making decisions you
    can stand by.
  • When it comes to drugs, it's hard to pass up an
    offer from friends without at least a few raised
    eyebrows. The fact is, nobody should have to
    justify a decision not to take recreational
    drugs. Whether you have a strong personal
    commitment to clean living, or just don't fancy
    it this time around, your choices are your
    business.
  • It's natural to want to fit in with friends.
    After all, nobody likes to stand out from the
    crowd for the wrong reasons. We want respect. We
    need to feel that we belong. Having mates we can
    rely on helps us building self-confidence and
    grow as individuals. Throw drugs into the mix,
    however, and it's easy to see how many of us are
    faced with a difficult dilemma.

Parenting

By Desiree Magby
13
Discipline
  • Discipline is the art of teaching appropriate
    behavior to our children. Discipline is the
    process by which children learn the limits of
    acceptable actions.
  • If parents do not set limits, children will
    constantly be testing to find the non-existent
    limits in an effort to feel secure.

14
Good decision-making
  • There is a better way We can offer choices.
  • As parents, we need to be aware of our
    responsibilities in matters of choice. We present
    safe, acceptable, reasonable alternatives in
    matters of preference. This is more complex than
    saying, "Which one do you want?"
  • First, the choices must be real and the options
    must be possible.
  • The offer of two choices is ideal for a two year
    old. Older kids can be offered more alternatives
    but don't offer too many. It's confusing.

Six Ways to Protect Your kids
  • Six Ways to Protect Your
  • 1) Set some rules. Sit down and tell the kids
    what the rules are. Write them down. Then post
    the rules in plain view. Your kids will be more
    aware, and thats a good thing.
  • 2) Talk to them. Sounds simple doesnt it? Talk
    them through the rules. And talk to them about
    personal security. Remind them to lock the doors.
    Make sure they know not to let anyone in when
    youre not there, except people you have already
    told them can come in.

16
Six Ways to Protect Your kids
  • 3) Show them how to use 911.  Make sure they
    understand when to use it.  And make sure they
    know its not a joke.
  • 4) If you have fire arms in the house, place
    them in a gun safe.  Not under a mattress, or in
    a cupboard.  You have a legal, ethical, and moral
    responsibility to secure your firearms.  The same
    applies to fireworks

17
Six Ways to Protect Your kids
  • 5) Give them emergency contact numbers.  
    Friends or neighbors who you trust to have good
    judgment if you arent available, for when you
    cant get home fast enough. 
  • 6) Make sure the kids understand Internet
    security too.  You arent there and you need to
    know what theyre doing on their computers. Look
    into Internet Monitoring Software,  low-cost
    products that invisibly monitor the activities of
    your kids, and privately emails you the results
    as often as you like.  The best of these software
    products track internet sites visited, downloads,
    chat room conversations, and IM.

Diversity
  • By Desiree Magby

27
Diversity
  • Diversity means the concept of diversity
    encompasses acceptance and respect. It means
    understanding that each individual is unique, and
    recognizing our individual differences.  These
    can be along the dimensions of race, ethnicity,
    gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic
    status, age, physical abilities, religious
    beliefs, political beliefs, or other ideologies. 
    It is the exploration of these differences in a
    safe, positive, and nurturing environment. It is
    about understanding each other and moving beyond
    simple tolerance to embracing and celebrating the
    rich dimensions of diversity contained within
    each individual.

28
Definition of Prejudice
  • PREJUDICE Is simply a preconceived feeling or
    opinion. It can be either favorable or
    unfavorable and can be either conscious or
    unconscious. When stereotypes become fixed into
    people's minds, prejudice develops into
    unreasonable feelings, opinions or attitudes of
    hostile nature regarding racial, religious or
    national group. These unreasonable feelings lead
    to discrimination, racism, and hatred thus
    intolerance of other races.
  • Examples If someone is prejudice it is really
    easy to tell because they will be mean our acting
    different to them if they are a different color,
    gender, or are from a different culture. Just
    like a white person goes to a school of Native
    americans the Native Americans will treat him
    different and may pick on him.

29
Definition of Bias
  • BIAS A line cut diagonally across the grain of
    fabric prejudice.
  • 2.To be or to show prejudice toward others.
  • Examples Bias is really common in the world you
    see it every day like if someone is bias about
    fat people or to other like white, black, or
    eskimos, etc. Lets say they a Native American
    wanted to get a job at a store that is owned by
    a white person and the white person does hire him
    because hes black the is on of the sighs of bias.
