4 - English 105 Research Repurposing Assignment
The choices I made were taking a different approach to present my point in the grant. Instead of
trying to blame teenagers and that they do drugs to fit in with their peers, I tried to understand how
they get access to such drugs in the first place. There is another reason which poses as the major
cause for addiction- prescription medications. Hospitals do not take enough care to make sure that
they do not give more meds than required to the patients, or make sure that they do not get it
refilled. I do not blame the healthcare industry for the choices teenagers make, but it is definitely
one of the major reasons that children start using drugs, even if it is to ease their pain. It will make at
least a difference if followed strictly because the teenagers who are trying to get more drugs will not
have a way to refill their prescription.
