What Parents Need to Know About Preventing Youth Alcohol and Drug Use
When It's Time to Seek Help
If you recognize any of these WARNING SIGNS, it's time to take action. At this point, parents often feel confused about
whether there really is a problem and are reluctant to risk taking the first step,
unsure of where it will lead them.
Parents, grandparents and other family members often feel tempted to wait things
out and see if they get better. Sometimes they confront the child only to be accused
of being distrustful, or they hear angry denial, leaving them more confused than
before.
