Navigating Life in Teen Transition
The teenage years can be a tumultuous time for adolescents and their families. For some students, this transition is smooth; most students however, experience struggles with some risk-taking behaviors, impulsive actions, and experimentation with alcohol and drugs. Adolescents are “biologically wired” to seek new experiences and take risks, as well as to carve out their own identity. Using any illegal substance can have a profound impact during adolescence on health, academics, employment, family relationships, and peer friendships.
Navigating Life in Teen Transition explores the dangers and attitudes regarding alcohol, marijuana, and other substances. Students will analyze their own personal behavior and learn about the lifelong consequences that occur when substances are abused.
