Rehab Center - How to Talk to Your Kids about Substance Abuse
When it comes to youth and substance abuse, there are two main situations to consider.

Talking to your children about substance abuse should start long before you suspect that there’s a problem. If you reach them early enough, you may even prevent drug or alcohol use all together.
