GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS ABOUT TEENS
Teens Are Getting High On Their Parents' Painkilling Medications, Reports
The Partnership For A Drug-Free America.
About one in five have abused a prescription painkiller to get high, and
one in 11 has abused over-the-counter products, like cough medicine, the
group said on its Web site (www.drugfree.org).
The good news: Fewer teenagers are using tobacco, alcohol and marijuana. So
parents, lock up those prescription meds and talk to your teens.
