Drugs and Alcohol

Many young people start experimenting with alcohol during their teenage years, especially when they’re socialising. It can be difficult to strike a balance between keeping your teen healthy and safe and giving them the freedom to experience their teenage years to the fullest. By role modelling moderate drinking behaviours and setting clear expectations, you can teach your teen how to manage the effects of alcohol.

The following websites provide information on how parents can minimise the chances that a teenager will use drugs and alcohol, or experience harms from their use. Click on the logos for direct links to information and resources.
