Train Up A Child in the Way He Should Go...
"A child who gets through age 21 without smoking, abusing alcohol or using illegal drugs is virtually certain never to do so. The CASA survey and 12 years of my life devoted to understanding this problem lead me to this bottom line: America’s drug problem is not going to be solved in court rooms, legislative hearing rooms or classrooms, by judges, politicians or teachers. It will be solved in living rooms and dining rooms and across kitchen tables--by parents and families."This quote is by Joseph Califano, the head of The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University.
As Christian parents, we need to talk to our kids about drugs and alcohol. We can't just assume that because they're Christians, they won't fall into these traps. Even some in the secular world are realizing the importance of individual family guidance.
