Kids can tell when you are ********ting them. They aren't stupid. I see this all the time with anti-drug tactics. After initially being quite scared, they stop listening after they learn that they didn't need to be so scared after all...
I recently saw the famous clips from Reefer Madness. Man smoking pot orders woman to play piano faster. Both escalate manically. Another many comes into the room and is beaten to death..
Flash forward a couple of generations, kids soon discover they will not die a horrible death immediately after smoking a joint, so the honest talk about drugs is over, and they smoke up while watching Reefer Madness.
