Hayzy Dayz

The embarrassment of the would-be hip parent having a drugs conversation with teenage offspring is exploited in this new comic-book format leaflet about cannabis. Produced by the charity Mentor UK, supported by Frank, Hayzy Dayz is aimed at 13- to 16-year-olds. The comic shows a pair of teenagers recognising their parents' views as less than helpful and it's left to the pet dog to contribute more accurate advice.
