D.A.R.E+essay

D.A.R.E by: Ashley acevedo teacher: Ms. Dove school: Millbrook elem.

D.A.R.E stands for Drug, Abuse, Resistance, Education this program is very important for us to learn as children because we should know these type of drugs as we go into middle school next year and some of these drugs will be used in Middle school by other children that show us wrong behavior and what we should not look up to.

D.A.R.E means a bad future to me because D.A.R.E has showed me an unhealthy life for me in the future if i were to do drugs and abuse drugs. This program has helped me alot by thinking also about my education if i were to put that a side and just not finish school. so when i had heard an officer was coming to our class and teach us about D.A.R.E i was pretty excited that we were going to learn about that. scince Officer Menius had been coming in on every Monday and discusted about D.A.R.E iv'e learned alot.

Drugs are very important for us young people to not abuse drugs and to resist it. There are many types of drugs and many things things we can do to it. Cigarettes, cigarettes are one of the main drugs young people like to do which is very bad for our lungs and so are the others, like marijuana, tobacco, alcohol. these drugs effect our brain and causes brain lost or brain damage. it also can cause your teeth to fall out or to rot. just like what had happened to a close friend of mine and her mom had lost her teeth by smoking. i don't want that to happen to my body and im prettty sure you dont wan't that to happen to yours.

From D.A.R.E i have learned to stay away from drug abuse and to stay violence free. It's imortant because anything bad could happen by doing any of these drugs. you can can make bad decision being druged or drinking alcohol. I would only use drugs unless it either is for my medicine or something i need t take from my Docter. If i were to be persuade by anyone to do drugs i would think about my eduction. Do i wan't to give that up just for drugs and be humiliated by my friends by not finishing school? Do i wan't to set a bad example for my younger sister and brother? I think NOT. i will never do drugs.

D.A.R.E was a awsome, great experience. i really enjoyed learning knew things about drugs. I really got the chance to look at my self if i were to d drugs. it persuaded me not to do drugs and i would recommend thi to other students. those studnts will enjoy it as well.

I, Ashley Acevedo promise to never use drugs unless its my medicine or my docter gives me medicine to take. I promise to stay drug abuse and violence free. I will never do drugs while im under your roof and show my brohers and sisters a good role model. I will stay a healthy kid and encourage others in our family that do drugs to RESIST it, well at least try to. sincerly, Ashley
