encouraging_angels Posted December 7, 2005 Report Posted December 7, 2005 I actual think it was a good idea, it show the teenages that use of drugs is bad and it not cool to use drug, It will damage your body for life and you will get caught. DO NOT DO DRUGS, THEY ARE BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH AND YOU WILL GET CAUGHT
Susie Posted December 7, 2005 Report Posted December 7, 2005 Gettong caught is not the deterrant they should be aiming at, its the effects of the drugs on your body and your life whch should be the message. They are doing this well, because they are showing that Kim ends up a total mess and that drugs are not the answer that the pushers are saying it is.

With the amount of people who take drugs now, it's iportant for TV shows to deal with these sort of issues, including showing the effects that drugs can have, not just on the users, but also on those around them.
Ryan Posted December 7, 2005 Report Posted December 7, 2005 I have to say that whatever Jade and Duncan were doing last year looked pretty fun.
astogirl24 Posted December 7, 2005 Report Posted December 7, 2005 And Samantha took something on Sex in the City (repeat) the other night. That looked fun too.
encouraging_angels Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 drugs are not fun-they can damage your liver, kidneys, eyesite and your also likely to have a shortier lifespan than someone who has never done drugs. DRUGS ARE TERRIBLE
Becstar Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 You also have to look at it from their point of view. Very young children watch Home and Away with their families at night and showing drugs may introduce them to this topic before needed. We don't need to be introducing drugs to Primary School aged children. Yes its a good way to show Teens about the effects of drugs... but younger children who may not of even heard of drugs are being shown this world way before they are old enough to deal with it. And Samantha took something on Sex in the City (repeat) the other night. That looked fun too. I doubt that Sex and the City gets viwers as young as Home and Away does, so addressing it on that kind of show isn't as bad. Although you think it looked fun so obviously it isn't sending an appropriate message anyway... Whilst i enjoyed the storyline and agree with a lot of the comments about it, i do see where the critics are comming from.
Ryan Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 And Samantha took something on Sex in the City (repeat) the other night. That looked fun too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Plus the Home and Away story ended up sending out the wrong message. To strip it down "Taking drugs will let you get off scott free with everything".
encouraging_angels Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 that may have been what you got, but I didn't, I got that drugs are bad for your health and can damage your internal organs. In a twisted way.
Furze-Forever Posted December 11, 2005 Report Posted December 11, 2005 Right, so people in 'real life' copy the drugs storyline just like they copied the stalker storyline?
