13. Adolescents And Substance Abuse - Alcohol Use - Drinking - Drugs - Teens Information on teenage drug abuse and alcohol abuse, from a provider of residential treatment services. http://www.aspeneducation.com/factsheetsubstance.html

Signs of Alcohol or Drug Abuse General Statistics: Despite the fact that federal spending on the drug war increased from $1.65 billion in 1982 to $17.7 billion in 1999, more than half of the students in the United States in 1999 tried an illegal drug before they graduated from high school. Additionally, 65% have tried cigarettes by 12th grade and 35% are current smokers, and 62% of twelfth graders and 25% of 8th graders in 1999 report having been drunk at least once. One of the behavioral issues facing many parents with adolescents today is the high rate of drug and alcohol experimentation. Parents tend to avoid this behavioral and health issue more than any other when it comes to their teenagers. It is difficult for parents to face the idea that a child could be experimenting with mood-altering substances. The tendency to ignore signs and symptoms of substance abuse can delay treatment significantly. The longer you wait to deal with a teen who is experimenting with alcohol or drugs, the more intractable and serious the problem can become.
