Today’s kids will shape our country’s next 250 years, and summer is a good time to talk with your kids about healthy choices.

Kids often want to talk but may not know how to begin. Asking these five questions in a non-judgmental way can help start the conversation.

New Ask, Listen, Learn materials—including new video assets—will aid you in supporting your kids’ mental health, talking about stress and anxiety, and explaining the impact of underage drinking and underage cannabis use on their mental health.

Conversations about alcohol should start early, continue often and naturally, and help kids develop the tools they need to say “NO” to underage drinking and underage cannabis use. Communicating the importance of safety and the dangers of underage drinking and underage cannabis use while sharing expectations and values are key to empowering kids to make good decisions.

Parents are the #1 influence on their kids’ decisions to drink–or not to drink–alcohol, and data shows that parent-tween conversations matter. But there’s no need to dumb it down – your kids are smart so stick to the facts! In this continuation of our Tween Talks series, we discuss what you and your kids need to know to have meaningful conversations about the dangers of underage drinking.

It is a great time to start and continue conversations that will empower kids to say “NO” to underage drinking and underage cannabis use. Explore these 5 facts to stay informed and stay involved! Kids who are in-the-know are better prepared to make good decisions.
