About this Quote

This quote by John Walters recommends that in recent years, there has actually been a strong emphasis on educating youths about the threats of drugs, especially cannabis. This is likely due to the truth that cannabis is frequently the first illegal drug that young people are exposed to. By sending a clear and consistent message about the damages of drugs, the hope is that young people will be prevented from using them and will instead make healthier choices. This quote also indicates that the government is taking an active function in informing youths about the dangers associated with drug use, which is an essential step in helping to minimize the frequency of substance abuse among young people.
