It depends on what you’re considering “abuse”. I would say regular usage counts as abuse, while simply trying something once or twice does not. The majority of teenagers will experiment with drugs and alcohol at some point, but only a small percentage will become regular users. Alcohol abuse is more common than drugs because alcohol is easier to access. However, the sale of drugs in school is pretty prevalent and drugs are by no means difficult for teens to obtain. Males are more likely to use drugs or drink alcohol than females.

How Is the Government Telling You What Healthcare to Buy and What Doctor to Go See Not a Government Takeover?
Question by : How is the government telling you what healthcare to buy and what doctor to go see not a government takeover?
Why the hell should I have to pay for the stupid bastard who smokes 6 packs a day because he knows I’ll have to pay for his insurance anyways?! I’ll give you 14 reasons to back up my claims.
1. You are young and don’t want health insurance? You are starting up a small business and need to minimize expenses, and one way to do that is to forego health insurance? Tough. You have to pay $ 750 annually for the “privilege.” (Section 1501)
2. You are young and healthy and want to pay for insurance that reflects that status? Tough. You’ll have to pay for premiums that cover not only you, but also the guy who smokes three packs a day, drink a gallon of whiskey and eats chicken fat off the floor. That’s because insurance companies will no longer be able to underwrite on the basis of a person’s health status. (Section 2701).

How can I explain types of alcoholism (not problem drinking, i.e. abuse) and the Types to a class to help them better understand themselves?
