🧐🧐I am looking for five parents that need more HOPE within the next 30 days for their son or daughter who is abusing drugs or alcohol.

So if you….
👉Have watched your son's or daughter's substance use go from "typical" to "troublesome" to "scary."

👉Have stared at your phone while its ringing and not answered it for fear of yet another attempt by your son or daughter to rescue them.

👉Have tried every parenting strategy in your toolbox, but frankly, nothing has worked.

👉Have explored treatment programs, and sober living options but you're overwhelmed and confused.

👉Want to bring some sanity back to your marriage and your family.

If these experiences sound familiar to you, put HOPE in the comments or send me a private message and I’ll get you the details.

Kratom, an herbal product available at convenience stores and head shops, is promoted as a safe alternative to opioids. Parents need to be aware of this substance, which their kids may think is safe. It is definitely not safe for those in recovery.
We've got a parent guide video on Kratom available at Parenting Through Addiction, just one of 36 short educational parent guide videos that accompany the more advanced courses for parents in different stages of this journey. Educate yourselves and be ready with a plan when they ask for help.
