On the TV Guide Channel, there is a guy who hypnotizes people on the street. I have seen advertisements for hypnosis to stop smoking. Why not use hynosis in the way immunizations are used to prevent diseases.
Shouldn’t we try to keep children from starting to smoke? Wouldn’t it be better to get them to abstain from smoking rather than trying to get them to stop later in life?
If hypnosis can work, it could be used to get them to abstain from illegal drugs, alcohol, premarital sex, teasing and bullying, cheating, stealing or whatever.
The parent could be present during the hypnosis to make sure nothing improper occurs. The hypnosis could take place in a doctor’s office or in our schools. It could be taxpayer funded so all children could be part of it.
All of us could benefit from not having to pay for them to be treated — or the costs associated with jailing them later in life.
