Strom Law Firm Announces New Article on the Dangers of Prescription Drug Abuse
Online, November 10, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The Strom Law Firm, LLC announced today they have released a new article titled "Prescription Drug Abuse: The New Killer on the Block." The article explains why prescription drugs are extremely dangerous and details how to prevent these dangers from happening to you and your family.
"As a parent, I urge you to discuss prescription and illegal drug abuse with your children and to stay actively involved in your children's lives. Know their friends and make sure that you know where your children are. A drug charge can seriously damage your child's academic and professional future," said Pete Strom, Founder of the Strom Law Firm.
The article also covers where people including children are getting prescription narcotics and how many people, parents especially; do not understand the seriousness of prescription drug abuse.
"Officials say the abuse problem is getting worse. The number of deaths represents a three-fold increase over the past decade, and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention discovered that in 2010 alone, there were enough painkillers prescribed to supply every adult with a one-month supply."
A conviction for possession of illegal drugs or possession of prescription drugs can result in academic discipline, the loss of financial aid or scholarship money, and preclude your child from obtaining a professional license.
