There is a difference between telling someone not to do something and teaching them why not to.. There is nothing wrong with taking drugs. As long as you do it responsibly. Like gambling. Or alcohol. Or Jesus. There is nothing inherently wrong with being a drug dealer, or a hooker, or a lawyer. It's how you do it. Same as basically everything in the world.
Telling someone what they can or can't do, based your beliefs, doesn't work. Don't go all DARE and sledgehammer a never do drugs ever policy into kids.
