I had "The Talk" with my pre-teen daughter.  What you can take, what should be used with caution or judiciously, then the sh*t that you don't ever want to take even once (like crack and vaping crystal).  Interesting tho' my kid really wasn't into drugs or alcohol.  She was raised by her mom who had both drug and alcohol problems, and of course the courts at that time simply awarded custody to my ex because "mothers make the best parents."  I got custody of my daughter when she was 11.  The kid had seen a lot and I emancipated her at her request at 17 so she could give life a try on her own.  She was a good kid.  Her boyfriend killed her in a car accident the week she was to graduate from High School. Speed kills - ironically.  Only child...you never get over that.

My daughter drank a bit too much alcohol, once, like 15/16 yrs old, and her friend called me and said, I might want to come get her 

 

That one time was enough, and she doesn't drink alcohol at all.   Also saw how it affected her uncles, other members of birth family and village families / relationships.

 

Thankfully she learned early and something I didn't have to worry about when she went to Uni.

 

Other Uni students, with new found freedom and influences, chose poorly, and did lots of alcohol & drugs.

 

Her circle of friends were more into learning and making money.  All paid off for them.  Even had a band and she use to sing on the weekends at night market.  Little entrepreneurs before even leaving Uni.

The really dangerous addiction comes from the system.  From your Dr.

Valium, Xanax, all the Diazapams, and now The Prozac type SSRI that are punishing to stop causing serious illness and sometimes death.  The one they're pushing now is called Mirtzapine sold as Zamir for insomnia and depression.

Exercise + Magnesium Glycinate + Gabapentine = A solid night's
