Reinforcing the conditioning


Questions about drugs and a wild boar

I saw this bit a few nights ago when I was catching up with Mythbusters on my Classic iPod while waiting to see a notary public. I want to draw attention to it. Of course my version was for Arizona, but it is the same ad except for the text at the end.





Regardless of your feeling about drug laws, notice what has happened here. It's not conditioning as such, more like reinforcement. The parents are totally incompetent to raise their teenager and must rely on the Approved Experts.

Now this is a totally different issue from drug addiction.

In my mind it's worse.

This may be one of those "chicken or the egg" problems. Is this the reaction to a few generations of adults who are unprepared to raise children? Or is this part of an ongoing effort to make parents helpless so they surrender their freedom and responsibility?

Or am I being just totally paranoid this week?
