The Home Office question approximately 20000 younger people every other year to work out exactly what modern society is doing. They’ve identified, based upon the surveys conducted, that an estimated Half of all 16-29 year olds used drugs during the last 12 months. However, if that’s lowered to a marginally younger age range of sixteen – twenty four year olds it works out that 1 in 5 have tried drugs in the last calendar month. However, if that is taken down even further, a survey performed by the National Health Service, of well over 40000 young people, they found that by the age of 15 twenty-seven percent of children have already taken drugs. At the age of thirteen 9% had previously taken drugs and at age eleven four percent had tried drugs. For additional info on this, please have a look at www.drug-aware.com.

Any suppressant drug including alcohol will suppress this nerve pathways and take away such restraint. Ability to make a judgement, to protect the body or honor, a quality for humans is taken away under the influence of drugs.
