Five Common Drugs Teens Steal From Parents

Kids and teens get addicted to prescription drugs mostly at the home. They try the steal drugs used by their parents and get addicted.
  • Narcotic pain relievers: Over dosage of these drugs can cause respiratory depression and sometimes even coma and death. Mild use can lead to constipation, depression, and problems of concentrating. They are mostly abused by teens.
  • Stimulants: Ritalin can cause nervousness, insomnia, and toxic psychosis. They are abused by both adults and teens in order to have better concentration
  • Sedatives/tranquilizers: Valium can cause defective coordination, drowsiness and depression.
  • Sleep Aids: Like Ambien, have high possibility for abuse, and generally teens use them for recreational purpose in order to induce the sleepy feeling and to have visual illusions.
  • Cough medicines: They consist of DXM, which has similar action as that of morphine. They cause respiratory depression, brain hemorrhage, nausea, and vomiting.
Parents can keep away their children from taking these drugs by, throwing them when they are no longer needed, and storing them in hidden place under lock and key. Parents not only should take care of children about prescription medicine at home, but also at counter.

5 Favorite Dishes in the New Year to Prepare At Home

We have the festival ahead and the people might be in little excitement and planning to enjoy it extraordinarily well. It’s really tiring after dealing with the historical recession and you really deserve a stupendous treat. Well then, let’s start with choosing what to cook up for the New Year!

Here are my favorite top 5 dishes that I would like to have for New Year at any costs. I am sure you will like it too…


  1. Sweet Peep-tato Pie: My favorite pie from creators of ‘This is Why You're Fat'. The Marshmallow Peeps that top this pie are what make this a perfectr holiday dish.
  2. Costas French Market Doughnuts: These are pretty easier to prepare when compared to its taste. So you can have it in your New Year menu without any second thoughts.
  3. Black Forest Cake: What is New Year without a cake? At the same time I am not from a jungle of Africa to eat whatever cake is kept on my plate. I like Black forest cake garnished with Milk chocolate curls and Maraschino cherries.
  4. Marzipan Ring Cake: The name gets water in your mouth right? Made of Marzipan – almond paste, this is a favorite cake of Danish people.
  5. Chocolate Con Churros: After a all-night party a tasty breakfast with Churros and hot chocolate is a ideal starter of the New Year morning.
