How drinking at home can impact your teen s view of substance use: Mom Minute Monday
There s already a stereotype about moms drinking wine. With a more casual attitude about drinking as a way to cope, there s concern that this can impact our kids. Author: Brooke Whitney Updated: 9:41 AM EDT April 19, 2021
CLEVELAND Since the COVID-19 pandemic more than a year ago, alcohol sales have skyrocketed. Being home more than ever and dealing with the stress of the unknown, led to more night caps and a lot of virtual happy hours.
This Mom Minute Monday, 3News’ Maureen Kyle talked to Dr. Kim Bell with the Hanna Perkins Center for Child Development. She explains her concerns about why drinking more at home can lead to an increased risk for substance abuse, especially in teens.
“Keep it short, keep it simple and look to the future.”
Dr. Jensen says it’s also really important for parents to show their kids what they’re feeling, too.
“Acknowledge the feeling and if you could own your own feelings. When kids see their parents having the same feelings and seeing their parents deal with it that s a really healthy model. So label it, acknowledge it and then look at the diversion as helping them to move ahead. Not to something better. It s probably not better and you don t want to pretend that it is.”
Dr. Jensen says to focus on what you can do, rather than what you can’t. If it helps, maybe even make tentative plans for later in the year for your child’s big day.
