You must be doing something right Firdo for your daughter to take the time to talk to you; especially about stuff she has seen, stuff that her friends do and then to make her own decision about what she does and doesn’t do.
So the cheapest way to battle this problem is to do nothing & educate them how to resuscitate a stiff? As long as they teach them how to look after all the frontal lobe free 40 year old survivors, then there should be no problem then?
We are looking after 50 year old veterans of enlightenment and freedom in aged care now; makes sense to get in early before all the beds are taken.
Wonder if it was the Ag Science teacher who dropped the loaded cow pats onto the oval in the trace of the path of the sprinklers.
At a local High in South Australia the ag science teacher teaches viticulture and the kids with parent/s’ signed permission put a ferment on soon to be bottled.
I still remember some ad I saw once that had some seedy looking kid with a skateboard captioned “There are better ways to get wasted than alcohol”, and thinking “dear god I think the alcohol education unit and the drug education unit at Healthway (wa) seriously need to conference a bit more to try and try their messaging a bit less in contradiction!”, because translated to teenager “There are better ways to get wasted than alcohol” means “Weed is better than booze!”.

(Please note that my use of munting is probably out of context and completely useless as I have no contact with teenagers whatsoever)

In frame #5 I initially assumed the spaced-out loser was Mr Rabbott waffling about the fate of Whyalla. It’s a good likeness.
