Discuss which antidrug curricula and advertisements have been successful in decreasing drug use and which have not been successful. Give specific examples of at least one successful and one unsuccessful antidrug program or advertisement

Examples will vary. Antismoking announcements produced by cigarette companies
that showed a clean-cut young person cautioning viewers to think before they start
smoking actually increased tobacco usage. Massive ad campaigns in Florida and
California cut teenage smoking about in half by appealing to the teenagers and their
peers. A particularly effective ad depicted young people dumping 1,200 body bags in
front of the corporate headquarters of a tobacco company to highlight the number of
smoking-related deaths that occur in the United States each day.
