Ideas for Parents During Red Ribbon Week-
We will recognize Red Ribbon Week Next week-October 29-at Eastside! This is a week to remember all the ways we can avoid and prevent substance abuse starting at a young age! Read on to find out what you can do as a parent to encourage this all week and beyond.
- Use Red Ribbon Week as an opportunity to continue talking to your kids about drugs. Let them know that alcohol and drug use will not be tolerated.
- Watch Natural High’s free celebrity drug prevention videos with your child and use their discussion questions to have a conversation with them about drugs and alcohol.
- Secure and take inventory of your medicine cabinet to prevent prescription drug abuse.
- Get to know the parents of your children's friends. Work together to set boundaries and monitor behavior.
- Gather neighbors to discuss neighborhood watch concerning drug use among children in the neighborhood. Discuss plan to alert each other if any suspicious activity is observed.
