"I started drinking and smoking marijuana when I was ten years old and now I'm fifteen years old. I'd go into my parents liquor cabinet and have parties and invite my friends over whenever my parents were out-of-town. We would see how much we could drink before we did something silly. My best friend Susan was 18 years old. One night, we decided to drive to the mall and hang out. Susan was the only one with a drivers license. That night Susan seemed kind of out-of-it, and I know I shouldn't have gotten into the car with her, but I didn't want to show that I was scared or chicken to drive with her. I never knew that Susan had been arrested before for drunk driving. She was my best friend but she never told me that. Anyway, that night on the way to the mall, we had the radio blasting and we never heard the oncoming fire engine. I can't remember exactly what happened, but I ended up in the hospital for 3 months with a broken pelvis and punctured lung. My best friend Susan died at the scene. I went through drug rehabilitation and I'm okay today. But I will never forget what happened and I'll never party with drugs or alcohol again and I'll never drive with anyone who drinks and uses DRUGS!"

Regarding whether or not these stories are genuine: I assumed that whoever posts the stories edits them, so they're readable, first. Just because they're written clearly and spelled correctly doesn't mean a kid didn't write them. If I were writing a story to be published on a website I'd hope they'd have a copyeditor take a look at it first!

I have a friend who is drinking and doing drugs, and I'm afraid she doesn't fully understand the dangers. I just hope I can help her before something horrible happens. As it happend to you. I'm sorry for what has happened to you, I just hope that there is still a chance for my friend to realize what she is doing and why it is so dangerous.

I agree with the last person to comment. I have been in Education for 14 years, even my best writers could have never written a story so perfect. At least let real kids put their real stories.
