Brave conversations with our kids Part 3: Alcohol, drugs, video games, and addiction with Dr. Ken Wilgus

This week we’re wrapping up our Pardon the Mess series on brave conversations we need to have with our kids. Dr. Ken Wilgus is with us to talk about addiction and its impact on today’s kids.    Believe you me, I would rather ignore this topic too and hope it never becomes an issue rather than face it head on—however, it’s too significant of a problem in today’s culture to idly stand by.   Dr. Wilgus and I discuss these topics: Defining addiction and the idea of addictive personalities, drugs, alcohol, and vaping—how to discipline when/if your child experiments, video games and the time our kids spend playing them, how parents can deal with addiction and avoid enabling, important conversations to have with our kids beginning at an early age    I’m so thankful for the information Dr. Ken shares today, and I know we will all be better for having listened.    Please take a minute to share this with your friends—it’s too important of a topic to take lightly.
