Do It Now, Not Later (8-17-2010)

PODCAST SCRIPT:

There’s nothing more gut-wrenching for a parent to have to deal with than their own child’s drug addiction.

Just watch a few episodes of the TV show “Intervention” and you’ll see what dealing with an addict is like. It’s a living nightmare. The lying, stealing, fits of anger, run-ins with the law and constant fear that the child will overdose can destroy and bankrupt a family, financially and emotionally.

Sadly, each year more than a million teenagers become addicts. Most will struggle with their addiction throughout their lifetime. That’s why it’s far better for parents to be vigilant and watchful for signs of drug use in 10-14 year olds — the age when most kids first start experimenting today.
