It’s the rat park theory. When rats were given things to do-not just basic needs like food and water but games, special little treats, companionship, etc-they turned down the drugs. Sometimes they tried them, but the other stuff was more rewarding than the drugs. The rats alone in a bare cage with nothing but the bare necessities to keep them living did the drugs. So actually giving the kids more pizza to keep them off drugs isn’t far off.

I was on ADHD meds throughout most of my childhood during the 90s so when I started to hear things like "don't do drugs" I would get confused because I actually did drugs and they helped me function. When I brought this up they would always say things like "well you can only take them if a doctor says it's okay". Then I would ask what was the difference between good drugs and bad drugs. I never seemed to get a straight answer other than "they're illegal and you'll get in trouble if you do them". Then I'd do the classic "rabbit hole of why" and they'd find an excuse to move on

Unfortunately, though it ended up ultimately failing because she couldn’t get any funding to produce programming materials for use in other parts of the province. :(

I remember going thru the DARE program in 6th grade. we had to sign a paper at the end promising we would never use drugs or alcohol. I wrote "I cannot promise I will never try drugs or alcohol in the future, but I learned some things from your classes." Sure enough age 17 comes around and I'm smoking pot, drinking beer, and doing mushrooms lol. However I can say the program definitely made me think about the consequences of drug abuse more and I never went overboard. So it wasn't a complete failure. We had guest speakers come in and talk about how they ruined their lives due to drug abuse. I don't know if DARE had such speakers nation wide, but it was certainly what impacted me the most.

I remember, back in the 90's, that the DARE program was still going around in schools. Though, we didn't had to be bribed with bowling overnighters, we were being guilt tripped and scared by seeing pictures of lungs in horrible decay, meth teeth, and I think there was a medical dummy stand that showed the decaying organs that your body will 100% get if you take one ounce of drugs. During that time, the only fun thing I remember were the beer goggles. The ones that make you feel drunk. Those were fun. Everything else was pretty forgettable.

Also, bring in sponsors and therapists for ex-junkies that can further explain why people become addicts, the actual sciences around addiction (with anything, not exclusively just drugs/alcohol), what kids can do if they recognize they're becoming harmfully addicted to something, etc. However, that would also mean adults addressing things like systemic societal problems with things like mental health as well as a bunch of other things that encourage people to fall into addictions (including drugs), to begin with. Something extremely hard enough for adults to do with each other, since falling into addictions has always been over-generalized as part of a person's personal failings, and addressing things based off of it being systemic can often be seen as controversial for some people.

As a poor kid, I always looked forward to them.

Dare was great: taught kids where to get drugs, how they were used, why they were used, what they did, potential side effects, how to identify drug abusers(who will give u drugs). What a stellar idea.

The anti-tobacco stuff was good because they had models of what happened to your lungs/mouth but the other drugs were all about just saying no to peer pressure and nothing about any bad consequences of saying yes so there you go

The cops that visited my school in 7th grade to talk to us kids about meth (because the neighborhood was notorious for meth labs). Cops didn't skimp out on showing us what you look like with prolonged use, what a lab looks like, and even how to spot one and report it. To this day, I've never done it and still remember what I learned that day (I'm 32). That was more impactful on me than the countless years DARE came to my school.

What’s funny is I actually learned more about drugs and why not to do them while I was a stripper than I ever did in school. If anything, the dare program confuse the crap out of me because I didn’t realize that certain drugs like alcohol and marijuana will not kill you if you have one hit. It actually gave me a very severe complex I didn’t drink or smoke, or do anything until I was over the age of 19. I’m actually habitual marijuana user now and I have a medical card because I use it for chronic pain and inflammation. It’s crazy, though I learn more about drugs when I was a dancer for sure. You would see girls who would get their entire lives thrown away in a few months to heroin or crack. They would literally do anything for these drugs, and it was so depressing and was a bigger Way for me to never want to do any of them. It was more effective than anything there could’ve ever showed me. I watch the reality is what happens when someone gets very very very addicted to heart substances and it’s absolutely terrifying. I’ll also add that these people were good people that were going through rough things in their lives and just made a wrong choice but it’s still to this day taking over a lot of their lives. The way there went about it was insulting and fear mongering if anything. I gave them no credit for the fact that I’m not a crackhead or a dope addict. I give that 100% to dancing. Because I have a very addictive personality, and I knew that if I ever got near those drugs, it would be over, but I knew that because I saw it happen to other people. If you really don’t want your kids to do drugs, you just need to be honest about the horrors of them. And you need to tell them the reason why people get to that point in their lives, and that there are different options for help instead of drugs. If we had a program like that, you probably actually would have a lot less drug addicts. It’s interesting though I have heard that Dare Failed miserably, and it’s really sad. Honestly because I have a lot of friends who have a lot of addictions to this day. I pray to God, her education systems got a little bit better at educating her to learn about things that they actually are going to need to know throughout life. Honestly, if it’s not, I’m homeschooling my daughter I could care less at this point I’m not letting her fall into the trap of being incredibly naïve and just thrown into the world like I was as a child.

So many bizarre memories... I'll share 2. One was a nightmare-fuel cartoon D.A.R.E video that featured a talking joint that must have been patterned off of Ursula the Sea Witch. Another memory is of my father ranting about how he had to go down to the school office and demand to know why I, at age 9, was coming home from school with a better understanding of the effects of different kinds of recreational drugs than on my times tables. That story resurfaces every so often, and the whole family still laughs at the absurdity of it.

Number one lesson from DARE: telling kids not to do something will just make them want to do it out of spite.

The county constable did the dare program in our district in Texas. He went on to be elected the county sheriff when I was in high school. He went on to be convicted of racketeering, extortion and drug trafficking and distribution.

The way my school did it is we had an assembly made from an ex heroin addict and he told us his life story(In seventh grade) . How even though drugs make you feel good then the ability to feel good starts to go away in other ways and you become addicted and sick and in horrible condition. He told us after selling drugs and doing them got him in horrible shape and almost into prison. He had gotten arrested but he went to rehab and turned his life around and now helps inform kids and make sure they don’t get into the place he did. I think it was very affective and two kids actually cried. I think they should do it a way like that in every school. They even gave out pamphlets of places to go or numbers to text or call if you or your family needs help.

It was a wildly ineffective program and we were its failed test subjects. The only thing I remember from my D.A.R.E. program was the trip to Dorney Park my class took after it was all done. I'm the daughter of two heavy pot smokers and have only smoked it twice in my life as an adult. I already knew a lot of this shit by this time from my parents rationally explaining things on their own to me so I didn't need a lot of education on drugs by the time I got to that program. Honestly the best way that I learned not to do drugs was when I was 12 years old and had learned one of my dad's friends OD'ed and died because of those fentanyl patches.

We also have D.A.R.E down here in Brazil. Not only it introduced me to concept of drugs but it also gave me the statistics I needed for years later reach the conclusion that I should start smoking weed since I was already into alcohol.

the issue with dare is that they treated the program like a haunted hayride for weed. i didn't learn anything about the opioid epidemic through dare. i never learned how to spot a drug overdose through the dare program. all i learned is "ooga booga weed will melt your brain"

Some kid in a dangerous neighborhood who’s desperate for a sense of safety, security, and identity: interesting point, don’t know why I hadn’t considered it

You know a video is gonna be a banger when the classic floral shirt is on.

Is he pulling a Fantano on us?

I can still remember the chorus from the song we sang at our ceremony….which is pretty damn crazy since it was in 1995 or 96. D i won’t do drugs A won’t have an attitude R I will respect myself E i will educate me We had the most dope shirts though. Black with neon rainbow colors. Speaking as the runner up for my DARE essay, and as the one who would get so into it & volunteer for skits / quizzes (and mocked / made fun of) It doesn’t work. This is now the 13 years sober version of me; and there are definitely days, where I struggle a bit, but I think of all the friends I’ve lost because they OD…and my 11 year old daughter…and it keeps me going with wanting to remain sober.

I started high school in 1983 and so missed out on DARE. We did have someone come into the classroom in 4th grade or so who announced, “Statistically, 3 of you will use drugs,” which I believe was quite a lowball guess, and everybody started calling out specific names of who it was going to be. Then, because it was like 1978, they told us to shut up, and then started listing horrible ways to die. No songs, no parties, no potentially attractive descriptions of what the drugs did, just “This is how this one will kill you” plus various descriptions of marijuana destroying your brain so you would be an unemployable bum, you know, like all those traumatized Vietnam vets around town…Before that, I got the American Heart Association anti-smoking coloring book that had you color smokers’ lungs black and such things. I never had any interest in doing drugs, yay. And then in high school it was AIDS and constant terror of nuclear war. GenX is like this for a reason, guys.

one year after I graduated from dare, our dare leader was arrested for drinking and driving lmao.

okay but he has a point about the pizza and the arcade games. if kids actually had places they could go locally that they could actually hang out and have fun at without losing all their money or get arrested for loitering, they might feel less like they're stuck at a point in their life where they have no control over anything.

Most of what I remember about DARE was our local police officer just telling the most nutso stories while on the force. I mean some of them were drug related but I just remember learning alot of police junk like how tazers work, drug dogs, gun safety etc. Definetly not useless info in the slightest but also not remotely what the point of the program.

I remember DARE vividly, but I always forget what it stands for😭 "Drugs Are Really Expensive" has been my go-to

I’d just like to point out that DARE motivated a 12 year old me into going and researching all the false data they give on weed, which eventually turned me into a stoner. Sooooo 😬😬

My high school done D.A.R.E and it didn't work. I researched weed and found that it wasn't like what they said and started smoking. My school also found alot of people with weed on them so they literally done what happens at 10:25. Fun fact I was high during that police officer thing.

@@strawberrypencl I barely remember DARE and they didn't go into specifics about drugs. Overall, I learned that drugs will not be a good thing later in life. They also scared us with meth before-and-after pictures
