Teenagers are so different than they were 10 years ago. Their morals seem to have changed, what is important to them seems unreal to you, they don’t even talk the same language. It’s enough to scare parents half out of their minds. If you’re a teen and think you don’t fit in anymore, you’re not alone. Today our 17 year old friend, Chloe joins us to talk about what’s really going on in high schools and at parties…when parents are home: sex, random hookups, drugs and alcohol. If you love a teen or are a teen you don’t want to miss this show.

17 year old Chloe is one of the only “normal” teens we know so we asked her to talk with us for a second show. In this ½ hour she reveals why cell phones are the life blood of teens and why they won’t part with them. She also tells you why you’re in the dark about sexting and why it’s so important for a girl to have a boyfriend….any boyfriend. Take an antacid and listen to this show.
Our in-studio guest, Francine Haight had a brilliant, popular, funny, athletic 17 year old son, Ryan. One day she awoke to find him dead in his room. Without her knowledge—and apparently against his better judgment—Ryan bought prescription drugs over the Internet. Francine was a nurse and Ryan’s father was a doctor and neither of them were remotely aware that there was a drug dealer on Ryan’s computer that came right into their home unannounced. Listen to Francine’s painful story and learn how Internet drug companies provide prescription drugs to your kids without your knowledge and in violation of the law. This is a difficult show to listen to but may save your child’s life.
Let’s face it: our kids are more computer savvy than we are. Drug dealers—in the guise of Internet pharmacists–prey upon a child’s innocence and curiosity mixed with computer awareness to sell prescription drugs without your consent and without ever seeing your child. With our in-studio guest, Francine Haight, learn how the use of prescription drugs is more of a threat to your children than street drugs and the ease with which they can get them without your knowledge. Learn what you can say to your children about this horror in your home and prevent your kids from becoming victims.
Ryan’s Law is the result of Francine Haight’s work to stop the Internet sale of prescription drugs to children and hold these companies accountable for their actions. In this show with Francine, learn how you can detect if your child is involved with prescription drugs, the ways in which kids who purchase drugs over the Internet become drug dealers themselves, and the most common Internet drugs and their effects on your child. This is a crucial show for all parents and everyone who cares about children.
