Underage Drinking and Marijuana Discussed October 22

Think underage drinking is merely an inevitable rite of passage? Think marijuana is basically harmless? Think again. Underage drinking is a common and pervasive problem not only in Westford, but in many surrounding towns. Marijuana use is common, too. In fact, just last spring, a number of Westford middle school students were caught with marijuana. Unfortunately, the age at which many kids start drinking and taking drugs is getting younger and younger. What can parents do?

Come to the Westford Parent Connection’s next presentation, Double Jeopardy: Underage Drinking And Marijuana. Marilyn Belmonte, a favorite speaker here in town, brings her vast knowledge and experience to the issue of young kids doing drugs. She will share with parents the signs of use and abuse and tell them what their next steps should be. Even if parents do not suspect their kids of drug use, Marilyn’s presentation is eye-opening and practical in terms of keeping the lines of communication open between family members. Marilyn’s talk is scheduled for Thursday, October 22, at 7:00 p.m. in the Stony Brook Middle School Auditorium. Tickets for the event are $5 in advance and available at the Roudenbush Community Center, 65 Main Street, Westford, until noon on October 22. After 12:00 p.m., tickets may be purchased at the door for $8.
