Youth will experiment, we did it, they will do it, we calmed our experiments, so will they, ok i understand that some run down low income area's will use a chemical to pass the day and hide from reality, it happens in all cultures, not just the US, the choice of the person to run and hide or run from the situation is for them to take, as for schools, its been like it for aeons, its called growing up, we live in a world where those in power want a world to look 'cool' look 'responsible', look 'I am this, this is how you are to lead your life, this is the line you are to walk along', its a shame they are soooo lost in touch with the normal person, then again... who are the puppets, they or us?, this is not a political comment, its just saying how life is, in school, on a bus, a train, walking the street, drugs are around us every day, mankind has a better understanding of what is bad and good, and school children are on a learning curve, they will understand themselves, not by being chastised, but by being left alone to work it out themselves, we all did it, they will too.
