I’m worried that my teenager is taking drugs, where can I go for help?

This is a real worry for lots of parents. It's good to arm yourself with some facts about drugs before speaking to them; try looking at the Frank website or speak to other parents. You will need to talk to your son or daughter, try to do this calmly bearing in mind that most young people don’t develop a drug dependency problem. If you feel your son or daughter does have a problem and you want further help and support contact RU OK; the Young Peoples Substance Misuse service. Click here to go to www.areyouok.org.uk
