Description

Grades, winning, being a leader, joining the right club, getting into the college of your choice, being liked on social media, what to do and who to be, these are all things that create huge pressure for our teens and twentysomethings. One of the ways they are dealing with that pressure is by overusing and abusing prescription medications. This is a sneaky situation that takes parents by surprise. Judy Davis and Sandy Fowler, 2 of the co-founders of DASIUM and co-hosts of the Mighty Parenting podcast, are diving into the problem of prescription drug misuse and abuse; taking a look at who is at risk and what parents can do to prevent it. And in Real Talk, Judy and Sandy explore family vacations. They're talking about how to get the family vacation you really want and how to talk to your teen about it.
