    Do they not do stuff like that anymore? I’d be interested to hear about what’s happening in schools nowadays — I don’t know any school-age kids, so I’m unaware of what things are like.

      My local school does a drunk driving “skit” every year which involves student actors being pulled out of a junked car donated by a scrapyard using the fire department’s real “jaws of life”. Hard to tell if it actually gets the message across though since most kids seem to think it’s just a cool show.

      I’ve got four kids, youngest 17, and they all seem oblivious to stuff. Maybe it’s because social media has taken over their lives.

      I’ve asked them before and not one of them said that they had any kind of awareness stuff apart from some social media type stranger danger things.
