Parents Guide to Teen Alcohol and Drug Abuse and Prevention
Free 65 page E-book

Every parents nightmare... you suspect your child is using alcohol and/or drugs. What can you do? Many would say it's just youthful experimentation and that it will run its course and then all will be well.

This may well be the case but it might not. Are you prepared to risk your child's future, maybe even their lives with a non-interventionist style of parenting? You will never regret having interfered in your child's life where alcohol and drugs are concerned and you may even be saving their life.

Parents play a significant role in their children’s lives. As their children grow into teens and young adulthood, parents are concerned about new risks they might experience. There is nothing that makes a parent feel more powerless than watch their son or daughter descend into the hell that is alcohol and/or drug addiction. But it doesn't need to happen.
