Scroll down for another very recent book on
drugs and kids...
Another great book
on drugs -- this one about drugs and kids, from our friends Cynthia
Kuhn, Scott Swartzwelder, and Wilkie Wilson, all Ph.D.s, and
the authors of Buzzed, reviewed
in these pages. While they are writing Buzzed as research
scientists giving the "straight facts about drugs and alcohol,"
in Just
Say Know they are writing as and to parents. This one
is about how to teach your kids to love their brains -- I mean,
their actual, anatomical brains: the piece of them that can get
messed up by drugs. "Kids are naturally curious, and as
teenagers they are in a lot of emotional pain," the authors
write. "Like it or not, kids have access to drugs that,
for a short while, can entertain them, wake them up, put them
to sleep, or just ease the pain." This book will help you
educate yourself so you can speak knowledgeably with children
and teens about drugs. "If parents can begin to develop
trust between themselves and their children early on, most of
the battle is won," the authors contend. I highly approve.
