"You don't need a telescope, a microscope, or a horoscope to realize the fullness of Christ, and the emptiness of the universe without him. When you come to him, that fullness comes together for you, too. His power extends over everything." Colossian 2:10 (The Message)
It's hard to keep up with all the stuff out there that can be dangerous for our kids, so I try to stay on top of some of this stuff for you guys.
There's a new drug causing quite a stir. It's called Snurf; no, not the little blue guys from Saturday morning cartoons, those are Smurfs. :) Snurf is legally sold over the internet as an herbal supplement (although some of the so-called ingredients don't exist), and it landed four Pennsylvania teens in the hospital in the past week.
Please read the link below to become familiar with this and other similar over-the-counter supplements that are being marketed to your kids. Make sure you know the signs and symptoms of use and abuse. More importantly, TALK WITH YOUR KIDS about this stuff! This opens the door for a great discussion about why people use and abuse drugs (i.e. what is missing in their lives?).
Praying for you and your children,
Lisa
