Talking to young children about drugs


Listen Later

“That’s too far in the future” “it’s too early for them to understand” “they don’t need to know about this yet”. All these excuses and a lot more mean that we are postponing critical conversations with our children. In most of the cases, the real reason is that we feel ill-prepared to have a conversation we don’t know how to direct. The grim reality is that children a exposed to drugs (40% of kids have been offered drugs) and while schools are doing a good job educating them, parents also can help. In this episode I share a personal experience with my own daughter, when the topic came around (she was 6 at the time) and how I managed the situation. I provide full detail of the four strategies i used, so you can adapt them or use the for other conversations.
