Report: Parents "Clueless" About Teen Substance Abuse- FOXNEWS.com
It is easier for teenagers to obtain prescription drugs than beer

The survey also says that parents are not setting good examples for their kids. Of all the things a parent worries about when their child is approaching the teen years, ruining their life and their friendships because of substance abuse is at the top.

Talking Smack is full of practical tips and stories that will provide great encouragement to parents and show them why earlier rather than later is the time for them to take an active role on this vital issue.
