Bizarre! The warning that snorting smarties can cause maggots to hatch in your nose shows why children don't take paternalistic advice seriously. Even if the claim is true (which I doubt), it's presented in a way that is clearly scaremongering and is not credible to a child.

Yeah I laughed at the maggot thing, I have a hard time believing that.  This isn't new either; this was going on when I was in the 6th grade, roughly 15 years ago.

 

These kids are doing it wrong though; haven't they heard of Pixie Sticks?

 

I think of this as a behavioral problem, in that it's pretend drug abuse, but I'd consider the health impacts as negligable.

What the hell do you think is going to happen to children who are just abandoned by bad parents in public schools that leave them together in large groups with minimal adult supervision? They are going to do really stupid and self destructive shit.

Good point, LanceD. It's pretty obvious that the woman they interviewed, Rebecca Boss Behavioral Health Care Administrator looks like she's holding back laughter while giving her statement.
