Paul Dillon, Drug and Alcohol Research and Training Australia
Event description
Parents, daughters, parties, alcohol and other drugs:
what's happening now and what can we expect in a post COVID-19 world?
This online presentation will look at the latest data on alcohol and other drug (AOD) use of Australian secondary school students and discuss the impact of COVID-19 restrictions on teens and socialising and what effect the pandemic lockdown may have had on teen AOD use.
There are huge challenges ahead for parents as they acknowledge the importance of their daughter's socialising but, at the same time, ensure their safety by having age-appropriate rules and boundaries in place as restrictions are gradually rolled back.
To assist parents through this difficult time, some simple tips around alcohol, parties and gatherings will be provided to help ensure their daughter's safety now and post COVID-19.
