Well, I think probably when she was probably 7 years old, 6 or 7, something like that, very young. And then she had--she went through the D.A.R.E. program at her school--which is one thing I think Philip mentioned--the D.A.R.E. officer. She loved her D.A.R.E. officer. He had a profound effect on the young people. But we began when she was very, very young, talking to her, basically saying that this is wrong. This can cause you great damage. It can wreck your life. It can steal things from you. It costs money. It costs you your ability to think. It costs your self-control. It costs you your freedom in the end. So we talked to her about it quite a lot when she was very young. Mr. Jennings. A lot of people at home know we have a baby boomer President, and a lot of people in the baby boomer generation are nervous, apprehensive; some even think it's hypocritical to talk to their kids because of their own experience. What did you tell her about yours?
