Teen Substance Abuse and Growing Concern Over Gambling | What Every Parent Needs to Know | Rick Capriola

Having to find out that your teenager is using drugs may cause a big state of shock. In this video, I’ve got Rick Capriola with me to help us deal with teenagers and addiction.

Rick Capriola has been a mental health and addictions. Counselor for over 2 decades, and in 2020 he published a book for parents called the “Addicted Child, a Parents Guide to Adolescent Substance Abuse,” and it also comes with a workbook.

Teen gambling can lead to serious consequences such as addiction, financial difficulties, and strained relationships. However, there are solutions to prevent and address teen gambling problems. Education and prevention programs, parental involvement, and counseling can help teens understand the risks of gambling and provide support for those struggling with addiction. It’s important for parents and educators to stay vigilant and take action to prevent and address teen gambling issues. Remember, recovery from gambling addiction is a process, and setbacks may occur. It’s essential to stay committed to the recovery plan and to seek help when needed.
