Effective Strategies for Positive Parenting Amid Teen Substance Misuse

The goal is to help your child feel like the world and your relationship with each other is in a good and satisfying place when they're not using substances, and when they are using, the world should feel a little worse.
Ever feel like you're stuck in a never-ending loop of bad behavior and ineffective consequences with your teen? You're not alone. In this episode of Hopestream, Brenda Zane, a seasoned health & wellness coach certified by the Mayo Clinic, breaks down four actionable strategies to encourage more of the behavior you want and less of what you don't when dealing with a child misusing drugs or alcohol.
Drawing from Chapter 11 of the book 'Beyond Addiction', Brenda dives into the tricky world of consequences and how to use them effectively without backfiring. She emphasizes the importance of natural consequences and the pitfalls of punishment, especially for kids grappling with impulsivity and ADHD. Brenda also sheds light on the significance of building strong, healthy relationships with your children, offering practical advice that you can start implementing today.
If you're looking for real-world strategies to navigate these turbulent waters, this episode is a must-listen.
