Parents and guardians play an important role in preventing drug and alcohol abuse. By educating children from a young age, we can prepare and empower them to make the right decisions. Some young people will experiment with or abuse alcohol and drugs.
You may not be able to prevent your child from using drugs and alcohol. If this is the case, you may wish to educate your children on being responsible and safe if they are going to experiment with substances.
