Mark Gregston and Wayne Shepherd discuss how easy it is for teens to access alcohol and marijuana today, and why they may engage in these behaviors. They remind parents that no teen is immune to exposure. Mark stresses the importance of creating a supportive home environment that meets teens’ needs in healthy ways, offering advice for parents and grandparents. He also provides guidance for those whose teens are already involved with substances, including when to seek professional help.
