Talking with your kids about va**ng can feel tough — but it’s one of the best ways to protect them.

Here are a few tips for starting the conversation:
1. Lead with empathy.
2. Keep it calm and respectful. Avoid scare tactics.
3. Connect va**ng risks to their goals and hobbies.
4. Share the facts: ni****ne is addictive and harms the brain.
5. Let them know you’re there for support, not punishment.

This time of year can be such a difficult time for so many of us. The holidays, whether you celebrate them or not, are all around us and may seem inescapable. December for those of us in the snowy regions sort of seems quiet in many ways when then snow is a fresh fallen blanket… but December also has a way of turning up the volume on so many things. If you are struggling, and finding the noise of it all overwhelming, please reach out… reach out to someone here on the page, to a friend, to a loved one, to someone safe in your life. If you know someone who may struggle during this time, please PLEASE reach out and check on them!! Anyone be it a family member, a friend or work colleague, even an acquaintance… if they seem distant, or appear off in some way, check in with them. Don’t pressure them to share, but offer to sit with them even if they don’t want to share. Just reaching out and checking on someone can make all the difference in the world. Be kind folks — to yourself and to others. Kindness is FREE!
