\langfenp1033 \cf11 EDITORIAL - Saving kids from drug abuse}{\b1 \fs29 \dbch
\langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \cf19 (The Philippine Star) - June 26, 2018 - 12:00am}
With the country facing a serious drug problem, parents would want to protect their
children from the scourge. Going about this, however, needs careful planning and
implementation.}{\fs24 \dbch \af2 \hich \af0 \loch \f11 \lang1033 \langnp1033
\langfenp1033 \cf8 The law authorizes mandatory drug testing for students in high
school and college. As the secretary of education has pointed out, however, grade
school children are excluded from the coverage of the law. Now the Philippine Drug
Enforcement Agency is hoping to change this, by including elementary school
students from fourth grade up or at least nine years old in the public school
system to undergo drug testing.}{\fs24 \dbch \af2 \hich \af0 \loch \f11
\langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \cf8 It\uc1 \u8217 ?s not unusual for pre-
adolescents to experiment with banned substances. Among the extremely poor, even
rugby is sniffed for a cheap high and to assuage hunger. Drug abuse is also likely
among children who are hired as mules by adult traffickers because the law exempts
juveniles from criminal prosecution. Parents \uc1 \u8211 ? unless they themselves
are engaged in illegal drug deals \uc1 \u8211 ? will want to protect their children
from the drug menace. And they will normally accept any help from the government to
see this happen.}{\fs24 \dbch \af2 \hich \af0 \loch \f11 \lang1033 \langnp1033
\langfenp1033 \cf8 Children, however, need special handling and optimal privacy
protection. Drug abuse is a complex problem that is often linked to personal or
family issues. Testing positive in a school drug test can stigmatize a child and
aggravate the distress, especially if authorities are careless in sharing what
should be confidential information.}{\fs24 \dbch \af2 \hich \af0 \loch \f11
\langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \cf8 Department of Education officials have
reminded the PDEA about the exemption of grade school pupils from mandatory drug
testing under the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002. There is also the
question of resources: DepEd officials estimate that drug testing for 14 million
students will cost P2.8 billion.}{\fs24 \dbch \af2 \hich \af0 \loch \f11
\langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \cf8 The PDEA is correct in wanting to clip
drug abuse at a young age. It would be better for the PDEA, however, to first
consult DepEd officials, educators, parent-teacher associations and even student
groups to discuss measures for curbing substance abuse among the young. The
intention of the drug-testing proposal may be good, but if badly implemented,
there\uc1 \u8217 ?s a well-known saying about what paves the road to hell.}
