Young people are always concerned about “fitting in,” and even the most trustworthy teens can easily wind up at places where their peers are experimenting with drugs and alcohol. Every parent wants to believe they can trust their kids to make good decisions, but it’s difficult for them to do when they see their friends having what they believe to be a little “harmless fun.” According to the CDC, two-thirds of all high school students have tried alcohol, and half have tried marijuana. Close to 20% of all teenagers have abused prescription medication, and children between the ages of 12-20 years old consume 10% of all alcohol sold in the United States. Those numbers are pretty frightening, but First Choice is here for parents who don’t want their children to become another statistic!
