A message from founder, Tom Monson:

“Some people object to the term Drug Wars. I always said that war includes a fight for territory, a fight for ideological ideas, ist includes violence and killing. Am I missing anything? Sounds like a war to me. Is it really a war? More people died last year because of drugs than did during the entire Vietnam War!”

“Drug Wars? Think about this: if we happen to live in a village somewhere in a remote jungle, and when our children reach the age of 10, they have to go outside the village and gather food. Now, outside our village, there happens to be a poisonous green and red snake, wouldn’t it be important that we tell them about the snake and how to identify it?”

Education Will Help Protect Your Children

If you can keep your kids away from drugs and other substances until they are in their early 20s, then they are less likely to become addicted to anything.

An effective way to teach your kids about the dangers and consequences of using drugs is by buying them a copy of Eric’s Song, There are two versions available. The first for younger children is the graphic novel shown below. The other is Eric’s Song the hardcover library version. This is suitable for older ages and perfect for a parent to read to a child to spark a discussion about drugs and how important the child is.
