I don't think the question is "Are drugs bad?" Everyone agrees drugs are bad and rich communities are just as susceptible to drug problems as poor communities.

The question here is "What should FIRST mentors do it they know their students are making bad decisions?" This is an important question to answer, because, for the most part, mentors are volunteers who may or may not have experience dealing with kids, yet kids look up to them and listen to their advice. Should mentors kick drug users off the team? Give them a strong talking? Report them to the school or police? Ignore it completely? I don't have the answer, but CD as a community probably does.

As a student who does not use drugs, I don't know what I would do if I were in the mentor's shoes, but I am interested in what CD's consensus is.
