< Drugs, alcohol, missing children to be topics
National PTA to hold 85th annual meeting
United Press International
Add to your “some things that
never change” list: booze and
-drugs as a problem for kids and
>tfeenagers.
0 Proof:
•The National PTA at its
founding 85 years ago vowed to
battle alcohol and drugs, prob
lems fouling up kids of the
T890s.
•The National PTA, at its
1982 annual meeting in Nashvil
le, Tenn., this coming weekend,
in the latest move against the
•teenage — and younger —
drinking problem, will ask its
affiliates to push for a drinking
age of 21 everywhere in
America.
-2 •The PTA also, in its newest
-step against drugs, will urge de
degates to endorse a campaign
against potentially hazardous
look-alike drugs — things “deli
berately made to resemble con-
itrolled dangerous substances.”
.'' Signs are that the twin attrac
tions — narcotics and alcohol —
strangle and mangle the wills
»and anatomy of susceptible con
temporary kids in the same way
they did at the turn of the cen-
*t'ury.
-il But there are differences,
i Users back then were re
garded as drunks or dope
‘addicts, who “sinned” through
weakness of character. Today’s
kids in alcohol and drug trou
bles are regarded as victims, not
dinners.
O' The chemical in pills or
drinks puff up the ego or macer
ate it, give illusions of grandeur
or insignificance.
Chemicals also make users
black out, rage, stagger, fall,
turn sexually maniacal or impo
tent or cause trouble driving —
bringing on sleep or a lack of
heeding speed and other regula
tions.
The chemical abusers are
sick, say therapists at numerous
treatment centers for “substance
abusers” or “chemical abuse.”
The proposed resolutions on
alcohol and drugs are among six
to be presented at the National
PTA Convention and voted on
"Sunday. Others concern televi
sion viewing, blood pressure
^screening, social security stu-
• dent benefits and missing chil
dren.
> Here are excerpts from the
^resolutions on drinking and
drugs.
Disabled
get unequal
treatment
United Press International
■ BALTIMORE, Md. — A new
Survey among the disabled indi-
'cates that boys and girls with
similar mental or physical dis
abilities do not receive equal
education.
“A double pattern of discri-
"mination is apparent,” says
-Katherine Corbett, coordinator
of the study.
'* “Mentally retarded girls and
' women are less likely to receive
'appropriate special education,
while physically disabled women
are more likely to be isolated
'into special institutions where
their educations are inferior to
public schools.
“Both patterns limit a
woman’s ability to reach her
‘’maximum potential as a produc
tive and independent indi-
'vidual, and both result largely
from a widespread assumption
that males must become self-
supporting while females some
how will be cared for.”
Complete findings are sche
duled for release at a conference
rn Baltimore, June 25 to 27.
The nationwide study of
-B,000 disabled persons was
made by the Disabled Women’s
Educational Equity Project of
the Disability Rights Education
and Defense Fund Inc., cospon
sor of the meeting. The other
sponsor is the Resources on
Educational Equity for the Dis
abled, a program of the
Women’s Action Alliance Inc.

lands.
•Legal drinking age:
Studies by the National Insi-
tute on Alcohol Abuse and Alco
holism show that alcohol is in
volved in 27 percent to 43 per
cent of the violations by youth
(13 to 19 years). Offenses in
clude vandalism, sexual assault,
disorderly conduct, disturb
ances of the peace, and other
crimes and misdemeanors.
Traffic accidents are the No.
1 cause of death among teena
gers, and most of those accidents
involve a drinking driver.
Teenagers are usually inexperi
enced at both drinking and
driving.
“Be it resolved that the Na
tional PTA encourage its state
PTAs to adopt positrons and to
work for legislation that will
raise the age to 21 for the purch
ase of alcoholic beverages,” the
resolution states.
•Look-alike drugs:
Millions of look-alike drugs
are being produced in various
parts of the United States — de
liberately made to resemble con
trolled dangerous substances.
Taken in sufficient quantities,
all of the ingredients in look-
alike drugs are potentially
hazardous. Young people can
develop a tolerance to the look-
alike drugs and thereby increase
dosage to a high level, and upon
taking the real thing (controlled
dangerous substance), can easily
overdose.
“Be it resolved that the Na
tional PTA urge state PTAs to
establish projects to educate and
inform their members about the
sale and distribution of look-
alike drugs and to work with
school communities to address
the problem,” the resolution
says.
A second leg of the resolution
asks member PTAs to work on
legislation declaring that the
advertising, sale, manufacture,
delivery and-or possession of
look-alike drugs unlawful.
The resolution on television
viewing, from the PTA Commis
sion on Education, asks schools
to install viewing skills courses.
It also urges parents and
teachers to help children limit
the amount of television watch
ed and to be selective.
The resolution on blood-
pressure screening urges PTAs
to ask schools to record annual
blood pressure measurement on
the child’s permanent health re
cord, notifying parents when
appropriate follow-up is
needed.
The resolution on missing
children notes that missing chil
dren fall into a gray area of clas
sification since they may be run
aways, lost, abducted by an
estranged parent or kidnapped.
It notes that abduction of chil
dren by estranged parents is a
w
growing problem.
The resolution asks Natios
PTA to urge law enforces
agencies to standardize pm
dures for entering a miss:
child’s name in the Nati#
