Guest guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Hi, Locally, we have a schoolwide-club called " Look Before You Leap. " Our two oldest kids, , 12, and Kristi, 11, belong to it. The club meets once a month and talks about the dangers of alcohol, drugs, tobacco, etc. Someone said it was silly to have our kids in the club because " Kids with Down syndrome never get exposed to anything like this. " I disagreed because I feel any kid can be exposed to anything at school or in society in general. Now that I've read some of the kids on the group have at least experimented with alcohol, I feel having and Kristi go to Look Before You Leap has been beneficial, even though they are still young and live in an alcohol-free, smoke-free, drug-free home.
