I shuffled from class to class without doing anything while my fellow students matured and worked hard to get good grades. The only kids doing as poorly were the heavy drug users. No one cared about them either. The parents and schools seemed lax to the point of letting the kids raise themselves. Students had access to smoking rooms and could get passes to drive away from school during the day—almost any excuse worked. Many of my peers freely used marijuana. I slid by unnoticed.
