Warn kids about drug dangers as early as fifth grade Detroit Free Press freep.com
The article linked is a stark warning to parents everywhere that makes perfect sense. You should certainly want to be the first source of information for your children when they are facing decisions about things like mind/mood/personality altering substances. Whether you believe in total abstinence like I do or not, you surely would have to agree that you want to help your children make such decisions. If you delay having such a conversation too long you clearly leave the door open for the decision to be made by risk loving peers who could pressure your children into abusing alcohol.
My advice to my kids will be "Why bother with alcohol?".
