anyone remember D.A.R.E.? Curious what people remember about D.A.R.E. I can't remember much of anything. Friend of mine posted her certificate up on facebook the other day, got me thinking.
What is wrong with todays youth I would like to hear opinions on this post and please if you disagree with my reasoning or premise I want to hear why, I have an open mind and will take on board anything that's said.
I have had the same argument on several occasions with people, the most recent was a youth worker who's constant answer to why so many kids are " fucked up " excuse language
is purely and simply DRUGS. I have seen so many versions of drug rehab that focuses on the drugs being the main issue and I personally believe we need to stop treating drugs as the problem
and treat them as a symptom of the main issue, these kids have low self esteem, a feeling of worthlessness, anger and aggression issues and generally feel the world is against them, almost all of them
have no coping skills or mechanisms and have no knowledge of the basic life skills (preparing healthy meals, general personal hygiene and budgeting). So now we have a group within our society that have little
or no social skills who even amongst themselves have difficulty expressing their feelings, they then turn to drugs and alcohol to numb these feelings and help them socialise but as Some of you are fully aware
substances don't just numb they can amplify and focus, feelings and the senses. Those of us who have used (myself being one) for pleasure and enjoyment, enhance our feelings of well being and relaxation or chase the
thrill from sensory overload. This group though more often than not, feel a sense of worthlessness and hopelessness that none of them have the ability to put into perspective, added to those often is an anger and rage that they have little
control over, its hard enough for a grown adult with the coping mechanisms in place to navigate through so wondering why a young person with all this and multiplied with substances can " Freak Out ".
And at its core is simply the lack of Parenting, They are not your friends, They do not automatically upload what they need to know and it is not the responsibility of teachers and schools, the complete inability of some parents to
pass on life skills astounds me. As a parent I believe we have 3 requirements and that's it, 1: teach them the rules that allow them to integrate within society 2: give them the skills to cope with life when we are no longer around 3: LOVE
them unconditionally.

Problem Accessing PV So the site kept timing out for the last week and wouldn't load the home page, glad to get access again. Thought it might have been everyone but it seems like most people were able to get on.
God for 5 mins Ok, thanks to my friend Tripper for inspiring this question
You have been granted the power to speak directly to every person on the planet and you can be as selective as you wish so.
What would you say to the human race and if so, which group of people would you direct it at ?
Remember you only have 5 mins.
