I think kids have been educated about drugs to the point of absurdity, where they no longer pay attention to the DARE programs or whatever schools have these days.
When my daughter was in second grade, she came home from school crying that I was a drug addict? Why? Because the DARE booklet they handed out in school informed them that caffeine is a drug. In fact, we had to dismiss half of what was in that booklet (no, honey, having a glass of wine with dinner is not like being an alcoholic)…something that probably went on in a lot of households that evening, causing a lot of kids to think of DARE’s anti drug message as nonsense.
