Spotting Drug Use in Your Child: A Biblical Approach to Confrontation

If you've got concerns about how to tell if maybe your child or your loved one is using drugs or alcohol, we kind of wanted to go over some of the ways that you might be able to tell that, and if you have that suspicion, how can you confront them and kind of make it a biblical conversation, a good conversation that shows that you're concerned about them rather than just something that's divisive and pushes them off further ways.
Have you ever had that gut feeling something’s not quite right with your child? In this episode of 'Beyond Sobriety', hosts Jim Quigley and Todd Temaat tackle the tough topic of recognizing drug use in your child and confronting them with love and faith. Drawing from their personal battles with addiction, Jim and Todd emphasize the importance of trusting your instincts when something feels off.
They dive into physical and social indicators that might suggest drug use, but highlight that a parent's intuition is often the most reliable guide. Beyond just spotting the signs, they also share heartfelt advice on how to approach your child about their behavior in a way that fosters understanding rather than conflict. With a focus on setting healthy boundaries, the hosts discuss how to navigate these difficult conversations biblically, ensuring that your approach is both loving and firm.
They also touch on the practical concerns parents face, like taking time off work or managing family responsibilities if treatment becomes necessary. This episode is a beacon for any parent feeling lost in the storm of their child's addiction, offering both spiritual guidance and practical tips to support their loved one’s recovery journey.
