Pandora isn't a widely used name for a street drug.... From what I understand it can refer to the "game" of throwing a bunch of prescription pills (usually stolen from their parents) in a box shaking and everyone reaching in for a handful... you never know what's going to happen.

That sounds deathly dangerous! I sometimes wish I could hug every kid thinking about using drugs...

Wow... I can't see taking things like Aspirin, Metoprolol, Lisinopril, vitamins, etc. much fun... BUT... I do see it landing some kids in the hospital!

Pandora is also an internet based radio station, that you can personalize. It's awesome!

You'd want to give them all a hug until you realize that many of the kids as described doing the Pandora game will do anything it takes to prove to you, they're "unlovable." Takes many years of hard work, pain, counseling, patience, etc to reach a lot of these kids and hugs rarely do it....

Oh I know... I've been there done that with many people... but it's just my emotional response to just wanna hug them... more for me then for them because sadly a hug will never be enough for most of those kids... :(

Hug? I think they probably need more than a hug.
