What are the possible solutions in teenage drug addiction?

Answer 1

Intervention.

If you are a friend you need to tell an adult.

I don't care if it is your parents, teachers, counselor in school, even your friends' parents. You need to tell someone.

Yah your friend may hate you later. But you know what do you want that friend dead and go to a funeral instead?

I say sure talk to the friend about it first. But will the friend listen to you? Will they not go off in a rampage?

If it is your son or daughter and this is a parent.

Then you need to again do intervention.

Take them to a counselor, put them in a rehabilitation facility.

Either way don't let it continue.

Take them to your regular physician and tell them what you want and why explain why and what you may have found out.

Or if your regular physician is not available, you need to get them to ER immediately. Don't wait for the doctor's appointment.

And if they refuse to go or they refuse to go with you or get violent you have the right to call the police in your state for help and interception.

Don't hold your child down, don't force your child, don't hit your child or physically hurt your child.

You will be held for child abuse, even if your child hits you.

If the child leaves the home lock the doors, if you have to change the locks and tell them until they cooperate with you, you are not cooperating with them and they cannot come home. They become violent at the door, or break the homes windows, call the police.

Yes this is tough love. But it has to be done.

They have to be helped.

usually if you have no want to press charges they will pick them up to take them to the ER knowing they are on illegal substances and will send them into rehabilitation from ER. IF the teenager does not have illegal substances on them, they will not be arrested. They cannot arrest for someone being under the influence as long as they are not operating any vehicles and/or machinery in most states.

bottom line; Intervention
