This is very concerning as an alcoholism and drug abuse counselor, this is just another things that the young of our society is coming up with something that can be very dangerous. The good thing about making this story public is to use it as a warning.
I will be honest with you I am in the profession and this is the first time I have ever heard of this but I do want to say to parents keep an eye out, it doesn't even have to be Burt's Bee lip balm, but if you suddenly notice your preteen or teen suddenly using this product and it's not something they used to use or if it's something you have seen your kids use but it seems he/she is going through it and buying more than they used to, it could be a good sign that they are drinking or using drugs. Parents should always be on the look out for subtle things that as a adult you may not think would have anything to do with drugs or alcohol because that could be the sign you see that could save their life.
