"When we talk to teenagers about the perils of drugs, we just say, "Don't do Drugs". Simple,Point Blank. We don't hand out brand new needles and say, "Hey, if you're going to do drugs anyway, be safe and don't share needles."
However I feel it is a little far fetched to compare drug abuse to sex. Abstinence is a moral issue and should be taught in the home. Safe and responsible sex is a social issue that should be welcomed in the school.
For those that believe abstinence should be taught, is this something that should be extended to teenagers only or also people who are unmarried?
