The Parents' Guide To Young People and Drugs

This is a fact-book and help guide for those who have friends or partners who are drug users, and parents of 1990s pre-teens and teenagers who may be encountering the drug scene. Covering: when to worry, when not to worry, what to worry about, what you can do about it, and where to go for professional help if needed, it includes: the language of the rave scene, street names for drugs, how to tell drug-related behaviour from normal teenage behaviour and most importantly how to communicate about drugs effectively at home. The book also covers many of the issues which concern the thousands of callers to the ADFAM and RELEASE help-lines.
