Rapid growth, exploration and risk taking are all part of teen development. Taking risks give teens a chance to test their abilities and learn more about themselves. Some risks, however, can be harmful and have lasting effects on your child’s health and well-being.
Two of parents’ biggest concerns about teens right now are mental health and substance use. And there’s a strong connection between these two issues. Peace At Home founder Ruth Freeman, LCSW will examine these issues with Jonathan Beazley, LADC, LMFT, retired Alcohol and Drug Interventionist at the University of Connecticut. Their conversation will include vaping, which has become one of the most popular forms of substance use among young people, despite the growing evidence of its health risks and harms. When talking about substance use and abuse with your kids, it’s helpful to know the facts and the myths. Parent knowledge, communication, and monitoring can make a big difference in keeping your child safe. Whether your child has not tried substances or has already begun to use or is using regularly, this conversation is for you.
