The second video is a 4 minute in-depth report by Ronnie Dahl from 13 ABC Action News in Toledo, Ohio, regarding teens and the dangers of inhalant abuse. I used it with the set of questions below and to stimulate discussion.

- Why is it so popular with younger kids?
- How many 8 th graders use inhalants?
- What is dangerous about Inhalants?
- What is said about the Williams family?
