Life events such as transitioning from middle to high school, breaking up with a significant other, moving or divorce can cause youth to use alcohol. Reassure your child that things will get easier, and make sure they know that drinking is not a solution. #alcoholawarenessmonth
The teen years are when youth are more susceptible to influences such as peers and the media. Help boost your child’s confidence by helping him or her learn different ways to say “no” to alcohol and reminding them that real friends would not pressure them to drink. #alcoholawarenessmonth PC: Andy Tootell
When children worry about things like grades, fitting in, and physical appearance, they may use alcohol as a way to escape their problems. Talk to your child about healthy ways to cope with life's difficulties during #alcoholawarenessmonth
