Today, no one can say that the danger of drugs is completely excluded in his family. Often, parents do not realize for a long time that their child may be using drugs. In order to understand the danger that drugs pose to teenage children, it is necessary to learn more about drugs.

"Defying drugs" simply tries to address the following questions:

what makes people use drugs;

how these drugs work physiologically and effectively;

which drugs are most common among young people;

pros and cons of available treatments;

what happens at the counselor;

agencies where help can be found.

There is a separate section in the book that deals with the questions that parents ask the most, and an attempt has been made to find answers to them.
