Keeping your children safe, from alcohol and drugs

Children and young people are under increased pressures to become involved in harmful and risky activities whether it is smoking, drinking, early sexual activity or even drug taking. Parents are right to be concerned and they have a key role in keeping their children safe.

Drawing on up-to-date research John Sharry will present principles for parents interested in knowing how to ensure their children remain safe as they grow up and to divert them from problematic drinking and drug taking etc. The focus is on prevention showing parents the best steps they can take to protect their children and avoid problems in the first place.
