"inbetweeners"
Filed under UncategorizedJun 3I ran into a friend today who asked me how the “inbetweeners” are doing? I said, “what are you talking about?” She said, “you know, the kids who love to get high but are not yet chemically dependent.”
Inbetweeners! What a great visual.
My Random House Dictionary calls between “an intervening space and time.” This space and time can be between the ages of 10 and 20, or between the end of elementary school and college. But more importantly it is the space and time between getting high for the first time and the discovery of loving to get high. Inbetweeners fall some place between experimentation and dependency.
As parents we need to ask ourselves, “What direction is my kid’s life going in?” For the Inbetweeners they are unfortunately, heading in the direction of Chemical Dependency.
