Wait or Just Say No?

Quick Write: What do you think is the best advice parents can give their teenage children about the use of drugs, alcohol, and other risky drugs?

I honestly think, parents can just talk to there children basically warn them, don't scare them. Usually, when parents have talks with their children they tend to loose their trust that requires them coming to them for answers. If you scream at me or give me a negative vibe every time i come to you for answers, i will start to sneak doing things. so, my option is parents should learn how to talk to their children in order to find out things & to warn them before doing it.


"Should parents abandon the `just say no' slogan of the Reagan era?"

parents should not abandon the slogan, parents just have to understand that there's nothing you can do. once you bring a kid into the world, there's only certain things you can do to prevent anything from happening. kids go to school, and learn things from school and the kids there. kids watch tv' learn things from there. the best thing to do is let your child learn from you, so tell them everything they need to know.

    2. A very lovely comment, but Daquan needs help with capitals and punctuation too! I agree with what he said. It's tough for parents because teens are wired to take risks yet the risks of drugs, alcohol and tobacco are much higher for teen than adults. Score: 4-4-3-4
