Sex education in the UK is nothing short of inflammatory and has only led to increased promiscuity and not reduced risky behaviour. I fear that this style of drugs education is of a similar mould and will have a similar impact. Drug use at an early age is a disaster for young people's development - I think the criminal justice system/social services/educators are all part of the solution. I fear that drug use in our state schools and care homes is instead more or less tolerated. Go on, Jock - get stuck in.

The BBC reports a new scheme to encourage young school children to role play the effects of taking drugs: Pupils act out effects of drugs:

Primary school pupils will be encouraged to act out the effects of LSD and cannabis as part of an anti-drug programme.

Hmm - notice they didn't choose ecstasy. "Now children, I want you all to hug each other, make friends with someone you don't know yet, and share your sweets with the whole class. No, stay awake Johnny, you're not doing it properly!"

I do wonder about the cannabis one though - they're a bit young to stay up till 3am talking shit and sorting the world's problems out aren't they?

As to LSD - why not just watch the Tweenies instead!
