Regardless of the efforts that have been put into drug education, the overall education of the nation's children is being affected. Very few people cite quality of education or even the importance of education in preventing crime . Perhaps it has no effects, but some sociologists, psychologists, and scholars seem to think that a good education is instrumental in creating a healthier and safer environment and society. The arguments for such theories about crime are much more abst ract. The main concern is that education opens doors of opportunity, while the lack of it places more and more uneducated and underskilled workers into society, thereby increasing the probability for crime.

I t seemed that the students would have more of a connection with the authority figure and, in turn, more respect for authority.
