[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely. For teens and tweens it is best not to cover up these issues. Be matter of fact about it and ask if they have any questions. They will likely be exposed to substance use in their peer group very soon, if they haven't already. There is a genetic component to some addictions which is yet another reason to disclose, and in general, it is helpful to have open conversations w/ teens re: drinking and drugs. Good luck.
