Troubled Teens Resources

On way that teens can be sure to end up being sent to troubled teen boarding schools or some kind of boot camp is to post videos of themselves getting high on YouTube. We posted a drug alert earlier advising parents to be aware of the hallucinagenic drug Salvia Divorium , warning that in many states it still has not been outlawed.

Well, troubled teens are privy to the same information and instead of reading about the severe effects of this drug and taking heed, they are instead ingesting it and then videotaping themselves as they stumble about like demented banshees. Yup, that will really get you far in life.

“Even scarier than the websites just talking about Salvia, now teens are video taping and posting their experiences on websites like youtube. [Senator] Bulloch says, “I went to YouTube and saw all these different postings. And I looked at a lot of them. And its just, its scary, the high that it creates. The hallucination effect that it puts on the body and the dangers of young people, if they have other medical problems maybe their not aware of. This high could really create problems for them.”

Bulloch proposed a bill that would make selling or having it in your possession a misdemeanor in Georgia…Bulloch adds, “There are roughly 15 states now that have passed laws or have study committee looking at the law.”

Bulloch hopes eventually the United States will ban Salvia on a federal level…This strain, Salvia Divorium is native to Mexico, not the U.S., and would be the only form banned.”
