Drugs and alcohol are not the best filters to solve one’s individual problem. Don’t be a victim, but rather be the person who prevents it.



“Drugs and Alcohol 101,” co-authored by William and Debbie Shooter (Off Campus Education and Publishing Inc., 2010 and updated 2019), will be displayed at the 2022 Tucson Festival of Books on March 12-13, 2022, at the University of Arizona Mall, Tucson, AZ. The book is an educational tool for those fighting the war on drug and alcohol abuse, especially teens who are unaware of these vices or susceptible to the temptations of it. Teens must make so many choices early in life, yet most find themselves unprepared even at times misinformed. For that reason, parents and educators agree “Drugs and Alcohol 101” should be a prerequisite for required reading, prior to any student entering high school or college.

 

This book is a non-judgmental, easy-to-read guide that speaks openly and honestly about the use of drugs and alcohol. It holds nothing back from cover to cover as subjects like “medical marijuana” to heroin are laid out so young adults will be in the know. Knowledge is power. “Drugs and Alcohol 101” has the answers.

 

“Drugs and Alcohol 101” is an excellent resource for parents to educate their children when the time comes. It is broken down so children and teens can go through it in sections so they can gain a lot by reading it themselves. According to Jennifer, an Amazon reviewer, she loved how direct the authors were, especially how “…they give overviews of all the common drugs including their side effects and everything you need to know about drug and alcohol use.” They explore the reasons people use these substances from achieving happiness to escaping their current troubles. 

 

Overall, the book presents alternative methods to reach these same “highs” in a way that will not negatively affect the body. So, if anyone wanted to have a reference book that would give you the starting language to sit and talk with anyone at any age about drugs and alcohol and even prescription drug abuse this would be the book.

Author Bio



William and the late Deborah Shooter are the founders of Off Campus Education and Publishing and have taught thousands of young adults life-learning skills as these same young adults were beginning or learning to drive. They have worked with judicial courts to retrain young minds on subjects like drinking and driving, drugs, and controlling aggressive street-racing behavior.


They wanted to write a book showing kids how important they are to society; how their young bodies are still growing, especially their brains. More importantly, how dopamine and the natural feel-good drugs that their bodies produce need to be maintained in a drug-free body.


Deborah passed away suddenly in June 2017 as they were making final edits to this update edition of “Drugs and Alcohol 101,” William is continuing to do research for further updates to this subject since the issue of drugs, alcohol and their effects on teens continue.
