If you think that your child might take drugs, you should show them this video of Stevie Nicks.

1. I love/adore Stevie Nicks... she learned from her mistakes...

I haven't seen this video and can't watch right now, but I hope it isn't an attack on her. Yes, she would surely use her own example to warn off others, but she's one gutsy lady who prevailed over her own demons.

19. Irony alert! "Quit telling people what to do" is telling someone what to do.

5. Was this during the time she was "sober" and zonked on Klonopin?

Sorry, some of the worst "drugs" are legal and dispensed by 'authorities'. She got royally fucked up for 8 years thanks to a prescription-happy shrink.

27. My doctor put me on Ativan

and it made me absolutely crazy. You are very right that prescription drugs can be the worst. I wouldn't take anything in the Benzo family now if you paid me.

9. Ha ha, that is clever; you are a clever man.

Tobacco is legal.

10. So is Sara Lee pound cake.

You think all he's on in that pic is tobacco?

15. If you could be the next Oprah, but online, would you? nt

[LoZoccolo]

22. I don't think so.

It's an interesting question, but I don't think I would really enjoy that role. I liked her show more when it was more like Donahue and it dealt with contentious issues. There's really no show like that anymore, and I wonder it there could be in today's climate without the audience shouting each other down or using obstructionist talking points.

[Electric Monk]

24. Ok, so you've got a reply for post #15 but not for post #10? nt

7. I think if my child wants to take drugs

I don't need a video to tell me how to handle it. I don't need propaganda from either side. I will tell my kids the truth and when they are of age they can decide for themselves what to do. For every person you can find that has destroyed their life with drugs I can find one who's life they enriched.

And really, if you want to keep your kid off of drugs then showing them a video of a multi-millionaire star with millions of album sales under her belt, and one of the top ten selling albums of all time, talking about how for me I'd eat the whole cake, well that's not much of an incentive to forgo the drugs. Not everyone is Stevie Nicks and not everyone have self control issues.

Try telling your kids the truth. When I was a kid I was told about the horrors of pot. When I finally grew a pair and smoked some I started to wonder what the fuck else they lied about.

8. Don't have to go to all that trouble. Just google (images) 'meth addicts'.

And prepare to be horrified.

18. Why SN and not, say, Richard Pryor, Charlie Sheen, River Phoenix, Belushi, ...?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

21. It says that taking drugs is OK. You can come through it whole.

She doesn't look like Keith Richards, doesn't talk like Ozzy Osbourne.

She did drugs. Now she's doing ok.
