Question: Which campaign do you think is more successful? Or will be more successful? Do you think these ads are useful and preventative at all?
I think the campaign showing the alternatives to drinking will be more successful. Teens in our society see so many bad things that they are pretty much immune to seeing images of what can happen to you under the influence. I think the ads could be useful to influence the kids who are on the border between trying drugs & alcohol and staying sober because it can show them that there are other options. Having examples/ideas of what to do instead of going out to party. On the other hand, peers have such an impact on each other that an ad can only do so much. So, yes I do think the campaign could be influential in some situations but there are other more effective ways to educate kids and help them stay away from substances.
*What are some other preventative efforts that may have more of an impact on teenagers?
