Reality of Drug Use DVD (Teen Files Flipped)
Tackle the important issue of drug use with this 21-minute MTV program. Teen-to-teen camaraderie and brash honesty build students' trust and easily spark discussion.
A group of four teens (Carissa, Kriss, Stephen and Crystal) all use marijuana regularly. Although their drug use causes problems, they each profess that smoking weed is their hobby and their passion. When they are "flipped," each must confront his or her drug use in a different way. Arrested for being under the influence and convicted of drug trafficking, Stephen is sent to a treatment facility for a term of up to 18 months. Kriss, who believes driving under the influence is an acceptable risk, is the driver in a DUI car wreck. Transported to a hospital, he learns he?s been "paralyzed for life." Carissa is thrown out of her home by her tough-love Mom, stays at a hostel for homeless teens, then "overdoses on methamphetamines and dies". Crystal, the "ringer" in the group has a real-life story: her brother, Caleb, did die of a drug overdose. The teens react strongly to their dramatized situations, vowing they don?t want to see any of this happen for real.
This program is part of the Teen Files Flipped Series (009DS).
