School’s out for summer… which means kids are spending more time at home and often more time unsupervised.

Now is a good time to make sure alcohol, prescription medications, and even over-the-counter medicines are safely stored and out of reach. What may seem harmless to adults can become dangerous in the wrong hands.

Flavored vapes are designed to seem harmless, especially to young people. But behind the flavor is ni****ne addiction, chemical exposure, and habits that can follow them for years.

Parents and grandparents, know what to look for. Small devices, sweet scents, frequent coughing, irritability, and sudden secrecy can all be warning signs.

The conversation may feel uncomfortable, but silence is more dangerous.
