Quote: "Teaching children that drugs are bad is not a bad thing, what should they be teaching them? That certain ones are ok?"

Well, whether we *should* be teaching them that certain drugs are okay or not is a fair question. But we *are* teaching them that certain drugs are okay. We teach that alcohol is okay once you're 21 (or 18, or whatever your particular legal age is). And we teach that caffeine is okay. And we teach that nicotine and cigarettes are at least okay enough to be legal.

Perhaps instead of teaching children that this drug is okay and that drug isn't okay, we should just teach them to think rationally and make their own decisions, rather than cramming our (or others') opinions down their throats.

I'm pissed, and you will be too Look at the misinfromation OUR tax dollars go the fund: http://pbskids.org/itsmylife/body/drugabuse/you_said_it.html They teach blatant lies in school because GOD FORBID people learn the truth. It's not just drugs, its every thing. U.S. History is a joke, English and Math are undervalued and underfunded. Why the hell do we allow our children to grow up in such ignorace? We really have become so lazy as a society, because it's easier for the propaganda machines to teach our children than Rating: 5
