Parents have a significant influence on our children’s decision to experiment with alcohol and other drugs. Conversations are one of the most powerful tools parents can use to connect with – and protect – their children. So it is important to start the conversation with the children about these issues at a young age and continue as they grow older and their level of interest and understanding changes.
Parent’s willingness to talk and listen tells the children they care about what they are interested in. It provides parents with insight into their world. These conversations are not one-time events. The campaign is built on the premise that engaging in conversation with our children is the first step toward preventing underage drinking and substance use.
Get connected with easy and actionable guidance and information for use in talking with kids about the dangers of underage drinking and substance use.
Bulloch Parent Network is an initiative developed by Bulloch Alcohol and Drug Council in partnership with SAMHSA’s (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) “Talk. They Hear You.” campaign and funded by STOP Act grant (Sober Truth On Preventing) Underage Drinking and Other Substance Use.
