Alcohol, marijuana and other drugs are prevalent in today’s society. They’re present and easy for kids to access. Regardless of where you live or your economic situation, your child will be exposed. So how can you prepare your teen or young adult to avoid use and abuse? Is it better to let them have some exposure at home, in a safe environment? What can parents do-that actually works-to prevent drug use? Richard Capriola is an addiction counselor and today he talks to Mighty Parenting podcast host Sandy Fowler to answer these questions. They discuss the 6 essential areas parents need to focus on to prevent drug use and alcohol abuse, what research says about consumption at home, and more.
