DRUGS CAMPAIGN
TEACHERS will be told to stop describing drugs as "soft" or "recreational"
because it encourages children to experiment with cannabis and Ecstasy, it
emerged today.
Drygs czar Keith Hellawell is to launch a national advertising campaign to
urge the public to drop the usage, reports The Times.
The move comes after a study of the attitudes about drugs among
seven-year-olds in Lincolnshire found that children were misunderstanding
the terms.
