I know, your kids are all the smartest. The brightest bulbs in light fixture. They could be in Mensa if they wanted. I know. Really. But to be honest, some one's kids are idiots. I'm not saying that yours are, just someones are.
The symptoms?
Scaly skin on legs and hands,
Appearing unsteady
Mentally sluggish
* I'd be willing to bet that they had a strange odor on their breath also, but it's not really mention.
Here's the deal, all kids are stupid. Every single one of them. Some are less stupid than others, some more. It's a fact. Just go look around the videos that they upload to YouTube, or the pages they decorate on MySpace- and you'll see the evidence of their stupidity.
It seems that every few years another group of complete morons think up yet another deadly way to experience a "high". We've had them sniffing glue, huffing spray paint, hanging themselves for short amounts of time, drinking outrageous amounts of cough medicine, and of course the list could go on forever almost. And now, we proud parents of these ever so smart, ever so incredible kids, find ourselves reading about them sniffing moth balls... and even chewing them.
MOTH BALLS!
Remember those things that would stink up the closets in your grandmothers house? Our kids are chewing them like candy! The only thing that makes this even worse is that both you and I know that pretty soon the moth balls will be replaced by yet another dangerously stupid idea.

The teenagers had been using the mothballs to get high, inhaling air from the bag for about 10 minutes a day because classmates had recommended it. The sicker of the young women also had been chewing half a mothball a day for two months.
The doctors described the high as "dangerous" and most likely under-reported in medical literature.
The teenager told the doctors that she continued to use the mothballs during her hospitalization "because she thought her symptoms were not related to her habit," said Lionel Feuillet at the Hospital of Timone in Marseille, France.
