People think drugs are the cause and a crappy person is the effect. No, if you do not deal with your problems, you will turn to drugs to avoid them.
Imagine being a teenager today, bombarded with peer pressure and the constant presence of drugs. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Recovery Pod', Steven brings along a very special guest—his 13-year-old son, Mason. Together, they dive into the world of teen life, discussing the pressures and challenges young people face when it comes to substance use. Mason shares his firsthand perspective on peer pressure and his knowledge about drugs, making this episode incredibly relatable for both teens and parents alike.
The duo also takes a trip down memory lane, comparing past drug prevention programs like D.A.R.E. to today's approaches. They offer fresh insights on what these programs should focus on to be more effective. But it’s not all about the past and present; Steven and Mason emphasize the importance of developing healthy coping skills for both teens and their parents. They tackle why some people start using substances in the first place and stress the need for better support systems.
Premiering on Father's Day, this episode is not just a conversation; it's a heartfelt dialogue between a father and son aiming to shed light on crucial issues. Whether you're a parent, a teen, or someone interested in addiction recovery, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice. Tune in to hear Mason's podcast debut and gain some wisdom on navigating the tricky waters of adolescence and substance use.
