Sobriety programs

I don’t think that sobriety programs such as Alcohol EDU are worth it. Most of the time that I have heard about AlcoholEdu from students is when they are drinking, they might ramble off some science facts that they learned on the program. The program talks about the chemical reactions in the brain, but I do not think that this information dissuades anyone from drinking. Also, I do not think sobriety talks in school have any effect. The makers of these programs list all the consequences of drinking alcohol to kids, and they say that it is wrong to drink for a bunch of reasons ranging from affects on the body to social issues that are caused by drinking. The reason that I think these do not work is because they tell kids not to drink for reasons other than it’s against the law. The problem with this is that most of the makers of the programs drink themselves, and do not see an issue with adults drinking. Because of this, I think that the programs just try to feed kids bullshit, and that the only reason that kids should not drink is because it is illegal.
