Dr. Potee talking this evening at MHS on brain development and addiction. Statistics are really bad for early use of alcohol and marijuana by kids, in terms of much higher rates of addiction problems later in life the earlier they start use.
For alcohol the % are 40% of those who start drinking at 15 years will have life addiction issues, versus 7% for those whose first drink is at age 21.
99% of addiction problems go away if first use of addictive substances is delayed until age 24.
Medfield Select Board member
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
For information on my other job as an attorney (personal injury, civil litigation, estate planning and administration, and real estate), please feel free to contact me at 617-969-1500 or Osler.Peterson@OslerPeterson.com.
