Summary: Parents,Teens and Drugs
Review: Parents, Teens and Drugs, is one of the best parent training tools on the market today. I have found this book to be very informative and descriptive. This book gets down to the basics of what every parent needs to know about peer pressure and how it is used to manipulate a teenager into using alcohol or drugs. James Nolen has done an excellent job in informing parents of today's dangers surrounding our children with concerns to destructive types of behavior. I finally can now talk with my two teen boys about the negative affects that drugs have on one's life, and with this information they will be able to make the right choice to abstain from such destructive behaviors. I can't thank the author enough for getting envolved with parents, and helping us fight against alcohol and drug use. Thank You. ....

Summary: Parents,Teens and Drugs
Review: Parents, Teens, And Drugs presents an objective and highly informative examination of the timely subject of teens and illicit drug use designed specifically for concerned parents. Author Billy Nolen draws upon his extensive experience in law enforcement to demystify the "secret language" of drug use amongst teenagers, while explaining the common effects and symptoms of drug abuse in clear, concise, accessible, "reader friendly" text ideal for non-specialist general readers concerned with helping their adolescent son or daughter deal with the issues of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, cocaine, heroin, LSD, amphetamine, etc. Parents, Teens, And Drugs is "must" reading for concerned parents and a very highly recommended addition to public library, community center library, and parent counseling center reference collections.

Summary: Excellent Self Help
Review: This book is a tremendous tool in detecting and identifying the use of controlled substances. I raised 6 children and I wish a book as detailed as this had been available. I have given the title of this book to everyone I know. I just want everyone to be informed of how easy it is to identify the many symtoms that drugs and alchol cause, the book provides not only the pictures but a step by step of the warning signs. As a parent I think that there should be more books that are geared to what's happening with our children.
