This booklet tries to help you to become better informed, to understand more about what drugs do, to be in a better position to listen and talk with your child about drugs.
Drugs are available throughout Scotland and in every type of area.
The information included in this booklet is what parents told HEBS they needed to know about. This booklet contains a guide to what the drugs commonly used by young people do to the mind and body and what the long and short-term effects are. It also covers the law, first aid and where to go for help. Additional information on aids and information for parents is also here.
