What are the Odds in Texas?

ALMOST 8% OF THE POPULATION DEPENDED ON OR HAVE ABUSED ALCOHOL IN THE PAST YEAR

ROUGHLY 5% OF THE CITIZENS USED PAIN RELIEVERS FOR NON MEDICAL PURPOSES IN THE PAST YEAR

During fall in the state of Texas, you'll find the people at large talk about one thing: football. For good reason too, Texas is possibly the state most associated with that sport. Although not a sin to "live" football, Texans need to be aware of the odds the family and friends are using drugs.

The University of Texas, located in Austin, can boast of more than the college home of football star Vince Young. It also was rated the #1 party college by Princeton's Review List 2007.

U of Texas "party status" seems to have quite the effect in the Lone Star State, because almost 25% OF THE POPULATION UNDERWENT BINGE DRINKING IN THE PAST MONTH.

Here is what it means for parents: nearly 5% OF THE CHILDREN IN THE 12-17 AGE BRACKET DEPEND OR ABUSE ALCOHOL. That means that they do more than just drink it, but they depend on or abuse it. So, most likely your 12 years-old child has probably 1-2 classmates that abuse alcohol.

There is a new drug on the streets known as "cheese," this is a compound between Black Tar heroin and over-the-counter pain medicine. Black Tar heroin is a variety of heroin that is produced in Mexico. It yields the same effects as white heroin (powder).

The effects of this drug (cheese) are painfully influential. In Dallas alone, it has been claimed to be the cause of 21 deaths.

There was an alert in East Texas schools concerning the drug and its effects. Officials are worried about the students in the schools as dealers procure the materials for low cost and therefore sell at a low cost. This makes the target market of 12 to 17 year-olds ideal.

If your son or daughter goes to school in Texas, especially in East Texas, then the odds are high that he/she has seen drugs and maybe even caught a glimpse of this new drug "cheese".
