Parents are the first defense in protecting their teens' from drugs and alcohol By the time they are seniors, almost 70 percent of high school students will have tried alcohol, half will have taken an illegal drug, nearly 40 percent will have smoked a cigarette, and more than 20 percent will have used a prescription drug for a non-medical purpose. (National Institute on Drug Abuse, 2014.) Our community is not exempt from these troubling statistics. Recently, it has come to our attention that some of our students may be participating in dangerous activities during the evening away from school that include drinking alcohol and perhaps even driving while intoxicated. Please know that we will investigate incidents that come to our attention. These investigations may lead to disciplinary actions that might include the involvement of the local authorities. Research shows that the fear of losing their parents’ trust and respect is the greatest deterrent to adolescent drug use. Parents are the front line of defense in protecting their teens’ developing brains from drugs and alcohol, so I encourage you to use the following 9 Practices that can reduce the chances of teen drug or alcohol use: Maintain a close relationship with your child during the teen years. Encourage them while offering appropriate levels of independence. Talk honestly with your teens about drugs and alcohol. For talking tips, read our ideas on the back of this page, or go to www.drugfree.org. If you drink, drink responsibly, and don’t use drugs or alcohol to manage your stress. Drinking in excess around your children increases the odds that they will develop alcohol or drug problems. Lock up or hide your prescription medicines, and pay attention to use of non-prescription medications including cough syrup and mouthwash. Don’t allow your teen to drink in your home with their friends or with you. Trying to teach teens how to “drink responsibly” has been shown to increase the risk of future substance abuse. Be aware of certain risk factors that may increase the risk of teen substance abuse. These include a family history of addiction or alcoholism; depression, bi-polar disorder, anxiety or ADHD; a lack of impulse control; or traumatic experiences such as bullying, severe illness or the death of a family member. Know your teen’s friends, know what they are doing and what is important to them. Trust your gut about their friends, and keep in touch with their parents. Monitor and supervise your child. Know where they are and who they are with. Stay connected with school – academics and activities – as a finger on the pulse of your teen’s performance, values, priorities and moods. Together we can collaborate to ensure that we protect all of our children and adolescents from alcohol and drug use. If you or someone you know needs support with this, please reach out to your site principal so we can coordinate support services. Thank you, Jose Miguel Kubes, Superintendent Delhi Unified School DIstrict
