The DARE program, associated with Nancy Reagan and the War on Drugs, was not entirely truthful about all drugs; some warnings were accurate while others were exaggerated, demonstrating the importance of critically evaluating information from authority sources rather than accepting it uncritically.

Nat Pennington: The DARE program lied to usAdded:
For all the stuff that they told me in the DARE program, it was still coming off of like Nancy Reagan and that whole war on drugs. I thought to myself, boy, does this mean that all of the different drugs that they talk about, how they're going to kill you and going to make you turn into a crazy person, are they lying about all of them? And it turns out that they weren't lying about all of them.
They were just lying about the few >> Right.
>> And so, just being the rebellious youth that I was, I pretty much tested that and found out there were some really, really dangerous things out there in the world that I hope my children never test things like that. And I hope to tell them just the truth.
