About this resource
This “Talking with Your Teen About Drugs and Alcohol” Pamphlet provides guidelines and best practices for parents to help them in this all important process. Talking to teens 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.
As a parent, one of the most important things you can do for your teenager is to have open and honest conversations about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. 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 pamphlet exposes the reader to the difficulties and rewards of talking to their kids, and offers guidance, support and resources to keep families talking.
It includes actionable strategies to ensure that teens and their parents have meaningful conversations about substance abuse and focuses on building trust in the relationship.
This brochure is also available in Spanish.
