I never cared much for the soap in the mouth thing. Mom passed away some 20 years back, so I feel a little safer when I hit my thumb with a hammer. Lifeboy, it 'twas..
Very good Post, Griper, And I feel that's what's wrong with our Society in relation to a lot of things, not just Drugs. Consider for example how many people in our present Society think that the Government owes them a living. We become quite angry at them, blame them, and lay guilt trips on them for their "Laziness", yet what can be done to undue all the incorrect conditioning and training that has been passed on to them by their parents?
This is why I believe in counseling programs and not just Pressure and Guilt Trips.
Unfortunately, I don't have any Statistics on the subject, but I do know this...
Anger, Judgment and Guilt does not produce results. Naturally, I'd like to make a Political Statement out of this as well, yet if all that's accomplished is a Statement about the Judgmental Attitudes of People, than that by itself is worth saying.
Me, I consider myself simply as an individual. I seek not to convince but hope only to inspire others to delve deeper into their own thoughts and ideas.
