Abstinence only?

The programs listed are abstinence-only drug education programs, but the article header makes it appear as if the article is about education against misuse, rather than use, of illegal narcotics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:D:9D80:36C:2D25:C4FE:AC1B:2E4F (talk) 21:25, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

I don't think this article gives enough weight to criticisms of drug education; in particular, it gives no coverage of the perspective that it is ineffective. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 00:27, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly agreed. BromoPhenethylamine (talk) 21:46, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No info on harm reduction education

This article focuses exclusively on abstinence education programs that have generally been met with heavy criticism in recent years.

It does not include this criticism, and it also contains no mention of alternative harm reduction education. BromoPhenethylamine (talk) 21:47, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
