more community work for young kids who end up selling drugs

How does this impact on Community Wellbeing? There is too much drugs selling going on in and around schools and schools close their eyes and hope for the best, afraid for their reputation. Meanwhile bright kids get dragged into it. Vaping is sold everywhere excessively cheap ( £1), cigarettes are being sold for £1 a piece in schools. Parents are powerless. At the same time, kids from impoverished areas or who are not as academically bright get pulled into the drugs lifestyle. The community as a whole needs to step up to help out everyone. Why should the Committee focus on this as part of their future work? We are losing a generation of kids to easily accessible drugs as consumers or sellers . Scotland is already the worst in the whole of the EU. This is not accessible and should be addressed ASAP.
