D.A.R.E. is probably working as well as the "McGruff the Crime Dog" program. Studies showed years ago that it was having about 0% effect on kids, but it still lives on… don't know why!

Personally, I think they should re-route the $$ used in these two programs and provide a sort of boot-camp for kids who are starting to get in trouble with the law. But that's just me… I like to nip things in the bud at the first sign of trouble.

That is a tough one… part of me thinks its a good thing, but part of me doesn't. Kids can go to the store & buy condoms, I did in high school… so why can't they. They want everyone to know they are having sex… so there you go. Show it off. But many kids will not go buy them.. won't spend the money on them… etc… but they are going to have sex anyway, so if the school providing condoms actually gets kids to use them.. then it's a great idea. I dunno.. part of me thinks that we are taking away way too much of parent responsibilities and pushing them on the schools. It's a question that has multiple answers.
I just noticed its drugs we're talking about. It is not a good idea unless the kids DR gives a note that they can take the pill. YOu have no idea what kids medical histories are.. the schools cannot take that liability

Alot of parents are becoming fed up with their kids being addicted to drugs and alcohol so they are beginning to lean towards rehabilitation centers, such as RecoveryConnection.Org…theres a helpline on the homepage for those interested

the best influence for me as a teen was when we had people who had first hand experience – ie recovered users, people that work in rehab…. although it doesnt work for everyone it is good to hear from people first hand with knowledge of how drugs completely wreck peoples lives… as for me i am one of the lucky ones that got off it – finished school, am at university and have a family (1 child and 1 on the way) and a boyf who loves me…. we not all that lucky good on you guys fr doin this
