Should we share information on how to safely do drugs rather than telling people not to do them at all?

I believe that telling people “don’t do drugs! Drugs are bad!” Isn’t going to do anything. We’ve been telling kids that for as long as I remember and clearly it doesn’t work. So at this point I think we need to start discussing on how to SAFELY do drugs.
People overdose because they don’t know what they’re doing. They take too much or do it too often, they mix it with other medications, they don’t test the drugs they use, etc.

Not that we should be telling kids “YES, DO ALL THE DRUGS” but we should be sharing the information on the precautions to take IF they’re going to take them.

No, do not do them because the damage the quality and length of your life. Sugar and Caffeine do more than enough damage to your physical body. Come look at these MRI to see what alcohol to narcotics do to your brain.

This gives the kids the idea that drugs are really not that bad.

The same approach as parents teach their kids about protective sex.

Yes, that would be a smarter approach.
