- Summary:
-
This booklet provides a guide for adults, parents, older siblings, and caregivers to help children develop constructive attitudes about present and future drug use. The first part of the guide focuses on role models in early childhood and implications of their behavior for children's future drug use, noting that parents, family, and the community need to recognize that children will copy their behavior. The second part focuses on competence and confidence, and how self-esteem, as a defense against habitual drug use, has a high influence on young children's attitude and skill development. The third part focuses on medicines as a child's first drug, offering suggestions to parents on using and storing medicines and on when to consult a doctor. (AP)
