Survey: Canadian Teens Ditch Pot for Pills
April 23rd, 2009 by Aaron
Houston, we have a problem. According to a survey, teens have given up smoking marijuana for pills and hallucinogens. The disturbing factor in all of this is; the study was conducted with teens from British Columbia… a place where pot has been common place for years.
It’s an interesting trend in British Columbia, as marijuana use for teens there has dropped for the tenth straight year but prescription drugs without a doctor’s consent, as well as hallucinogen drugs such as Ecstasy, are on the rise. Ecstasy use alone had increased by nine percent since 2003.
Unfortunately, the survey doesn’t explain why their teens have moved to pills.
