"Everybody drinks. Just have a beer and stop being a baby."

"Come on, it's only pot. It's not a big deal."

"Just take these. I know they're steroids, but nobody will know you're taking them, and you'll be amazed how much better your game will be."

The message is the same in schools around the country. Insert the area's biggest drug-related problem, and you'll hear the same thing: "Everyone is doing it, and they're turning out just fine."
