1. When Parents Don't Know What to Say: Common Questions Answered

Talking with young people about alcohol, vaping, and other risky behaviors can be hard. Teens may not want to talk, or they may point out choices you made when you were younger. That's okay. You don't have to be perfect to have these conversations.

What matters most is staying involved and keeping the door open.

To help guide parents through difficult situations, we've created a YouTube playlist of videos that answer common questions we hear from parents. You can view that here:
