Drug prevention is the best step. Parents should inhibit disgust of drugs, and hate drugs at a young age. Do not panic when you know that your family is involved in drugs. The family should first calm down, the family should be ready to accept the problem and find ways to handle the problem. The family must examine in detail the cause of the problem.
Parents usually blame it on friends, school or work place.
The family should be concerned and must get facts of drugs, the dangers and their affects. They must also know the signs of drug addiction. The family members can consult Narcotics Control Bureau for help and advise. If the child is in a Rehabilitation Centre, parents and family members should visit as often as possible to show concern, to support and to see them towards recovery. When visiting in the Rehabilitation Centre, the family should not show on excessive and unreasonable degree of sympathy, such as crying in front of the inmate.
