Description
This “Talking with Your Child About Drugs and Alcohol” Pamphlet provides guidelines and best practices for parents to help them in this all important process. Talking to young kids about substance abuse can be tricky, touchy, and troublesome. Parental involvement can mean the difference between a young person making healthy decisions or poor ones that can lead to addiction, mental and bodily damage, or death. But how do parents start this conversation? What tools can parents use to keep the lines of communication open? Should parents confess to their own experiences with substance abuse?
While no one has all the answers to these questions, this brochure exposes the reader to the difficulties and rewards of talking to his or her kids. It offers guidance, support, and resources to keep families talking. While also including actionable strategies to ensure that young children and their parents have meaningful conversations about substance abuse and focuses on building trust in the relationship.
