If it is becoming such a problem that used needles are found on school grounds daily - shouldn't it be the needle exchange that has to be closed down/moved elsewhere?
I am guessing the school has been around a lot longer than the program, and IMO when young children are involved, there has to be a big line drawn.
In saying that though, the media does have a tendency to over-exadurate(sp?) the severity of a problem.......so it may not be as bad as its being portrayed.
I just think its a scary thought that children as young as 5yrs old are so close to such a program. I wonder if the teachers and staff educate the students about the dangers etc of used syringes & not to pick them up.
I would hope so for the kids' sake
Anyways, be safe & take care everyone %)
