    Do they not do stuff like that anymore? Iā€™d be interested to hear about whatā€™s happening in schools nowadays ā€” I donā€™t know any school-age kids, so Iā€™m unaware of what things are like.

      Iā€™ve got four kids, youngest 17, and they all seem oblivious to stuff. Maybe itā€™s because social media has taken over their lives.

      Iā€™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.

      My local school does a drunk driving ā€œskitā€ every year which involves student actors being pulled out of a junked car donated by a scrapyard using the fire departmentā€™s real ā€œjaws of lifeā€. Hard to tell if it actually gets the message across though since most kids seem to think itā€™s just a cool show.
