U.S. Millennials… did D.A.R.E even teach or do anything for us?
I was thinking about the D.A.R.E program and how just about all of my friends who remember doing it are currently pot heads (myself included). That entire program was so strange, I can’t say I remember anything they really taught us and my viewpoint on drugs is definitely different as an adult than what they taught.
I remember at my elementary school, the police officer who came to teach the program did a “stranger danger” section too and decided that kidnapping kids in front of their class was a great idea to teach them a lesson as to why you don’t take candy from strangers. With no warning. Just grabbing us kids and running out of the building with us over his shoulder. I was one of the kids he picked because my dad worked for the town and he knew my dad. Another kid he picked peed himself he was so afraid.
The entire program was so weird. Does anyone else have weird D.A.R.E. memories or did we just collectively hallucinate the whole thing?
