Dangers and consequences of sniffing glue...

After chronic glue sniffing, the body and mind can become seriously damaged, as use increases and tolerance builds. The brain and the rest of the nervous system begin to experience damage, as nerve tissues are repeatedly attacked by toxic chemicals present in glue fumes. Glue sniffers can also experience cognitive problems from brain damage, developing learning disabilities, memory problems and mood disorders.

Chronic glue sniffing can also attack other organs within the body, such as the kidneys and liver. With repeated glue sniffing, the lungs become damaged as well, making them prone to chronic or chemical bronchitis. Over time, the nasal cavity becomes eroded by glue sniffing, and skin throughout the body and on the lining of the nose becomes irritated and compromised.

Thank you, John, for this to the point information on glue sniffing.
It sure convinced me to not sniff glue...
Now I'll have to try to convince the rest!
