Let's say I went through school and then was really bad at math. Would I then want schools to not teach math?

no, you would want them to adopt a math program which has proven to be effective.

DARE has empirically been proven to have at best no effect and at worse has seen an increase in drug use.

If you want a good piece on the subject, I strongly suggest this. https://www.scientificamerican.com/arti ... esnt-work/

Quote:
... A large U.S. survey conducted in 2012 by psychologist Lloyd D. Johnston and his colleagues at the University of Michigan revealed that fully 24 percent of 12th graders had engaged in binge drinking (defined as five or more drinks on one occasion) in the past two weeks. ...

Five belts in a night is a binge?!?


Hell... that's just getting warmed up during post season baseball action.

My DARE coordinator went off script trying to warn us off inhalants, and inadvertently made us aware how to get our hands on whippets.

as always, the timeless stan bush has provided the perfect theme song for this thread

Sometimes when your hopes have all been shattered
And there's nowhere to turn
You wonder how you keep going (going)
Think of all the things that really mattered
And the chances you've earned
The fire in your heart is growing (growing)
You can fly, if you try, leaving the past behind
Heaven only knows what you might find

Dare, dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare, dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare

Everybody's trying to break your spirit
Keeping you down
Seems like it's been forever (ever), oh
But there's another voice if you'll just hear it
Saying it's the last round
Looks like it's now or never (never)
Out of the darkness you stumble into the light
Fighting for the things you know are right

Dare, dare to believe you can survive
The power is there at your command
Dare, dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare

Dare, dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare, dare to keep all of your dreams alive
The power is there at your command, oh
Dare, dare to keep all your love alive
Dare to be all you can be
[/b]Dare, there is a place where dreams survive
And it's calling you on to victory[/b]
Dare, dare.


(seriously, i wouldn't be surprised if this song was originally written with the actual D.A.R.E. program in mind cuz it seems to kind of go hand in hand with the overall dare ethos/spirit)

We used to buy them at Lechters twenty years ago.
