Parenting Tips: Make your teen aware of drug addiction.

Is Ishaan there?”

“Yes, he is in his room! Upstairs”

“Call him. It’s been four days I haven’t seen him.”

“wait I’ll call him, Said Ishaan’s mother to Ishaan’s father and went to Ishaan’s room upstairs.

She was in doubt whether Ishaan would come out of his room or not?

Ishaan, please come out of your room! Papa wants to see you“.

Okay! I am coming said Ishaan tiredly.

And it was three hours passed but Ishaan did not come out of the room and when he came, he just went out of the house.

We can see such situations many times at our house. When kids are growing up, such conditions are quite common.

There is nothing to worry about in this situation.

But there could be so many reasons behind this situation, like the kid must be facing any bullying or any peer pressure or if getting addicted to some drugs, and lastly must be seeing a relationship.

In such situations, we should not leave the kids/teens alone because it is an apt time to give correct guidance from parents.

If they are not getting proper guidance, that may lead to harmful situations.

Sometimes in such situations, life is also spoilt.

So parents should never think that children don’t need them.

Children do need their parents. Parents can deal in different ways for giving the right way to lead their life.

Parents will have to deal with the children as per the children’s requirements.

Just think of the situation where your friend is wearing a ring on your ears and nose and is having a weird hairstyle, eating habits, and nightlife, and you have to adjust with your friend.

You must be feeling under pressure in such a situation.

Similarly, the kids feel the same pressure.

There are many such things that they do under the pressure of their classmates and friends.

Things have changed a lot. There are many circumstances where parents have to deal with their kids. And the kids need to be protected from certain conditions with which they can get affected.

But, they should never stop helping the kids to come out of such situations as only parents can understand the condition of kids/teens.

Consumption of alcohol, cigarettes and inhalants by children is a primary concern of parents.

They start consuming dangerous drugs at an early age.

Consumption of such harmful drugs and alcohol is hazardous to their health.

This affects physical growth, mental growth and performance in school.

The primary reasons behind the consumption are:

1Dopamine is the hormone which increases the feeling of happiness in the body. Anyone who consumed drugs feels high or low, depending on the level of this hormone. In addition to it, as time passes, there are some changes in brain activity. The effect of dopamine decreases, and then kids tend to eat more of such drugs. To get a feeling of happiness, the kids increase the dose of these drugs.

2. Mental issues could be one of the reasons for depression. 

3. Peer pressure, with respect to acceptance in society, is one primary reason for the consumption of drugs.

Pharmaceutical. Tablets on the table

4. Facing an unwanted or lousy situation in early childhood also causes teens to get attracted to drugs
