SPEAK RESPONSIBLY
July 17, 2009The Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth (CAMY) at Georgetown University recently reported that our youth are exposed more to advertisements encouraging them to drink alcohol, rather than the “drink responsibility” ads.
The message of “drink responsibly” is not being communicated responsibly.
However, it makes no sense to leave the job of discouraging youth from drinking to the alcohol companies, who are driven by the bottom line, not compassion.
Messages concerning the responsibilities of life come from parents and educators, not television.
Gordy Weinand, the Director of Community Relations “Tell your kids not to drink or do drugs. Don’t wait for them to see a TV ad. If you don’t know exactly what to say, then request educational materials from Narconon. Drug prevention is far more economical in the long run than drug treatment.”
