Talk to Your Children About Alcohol

Alcohol and Health Series

It’s great you want to talk to your children about alcohol. It is important for children to have help from a parent or care provider who thinks ahead, takes the time to be informed and uses their knowledge to help them make informed and healthy choices.

  • Learn about alcohol-use trends in Alberta, including specific information about youth drinking
  • Set the stage for a conversation about alcohol with your children
  • Improve your children’s communication skills
  • Understand how to support your children to make good decisions and apply critical thought
