[quote=Anonymous]One meeting I remember: Drug abuse --where it starts--inhalants and that type of thing. This was geared to prepare elementary parents for middle school age kids. Mine were small, but I learned a LOT. I was sitting next to a mom who had a MS son and she learned something that shocked her. She connected some dots she did not know existed. This meeting prepared me for the future and I think I was able to head off some issues. Also learned that teens metabolize alcohol quite differently from adults and that early drinking can really set a kid up for alcoholism. Another good meeting: career counselor came from the high school to talk about colleges--not to encourage pushing ,etc, but just how to be sure your kid has that as a goal. Suggestion--drive through colleges when you are on vacation just so a kid gets a good idea of what a college looks like. Practical stuff. [/quote]
