Substance Abuse: Parents, What Are You Doing to Stop the Cycle of Stereotypes in Your Children?
Question by Just Little Old Me: Parents, what are you doing to stop the cycle of stereotypes in your children?
“Rich raise spoiled, rotten brats”

I’m keeping this one:
“Rich provide better educations for their children”
As for the spoiled rotten brats, that will be tough, but I’m so cheap I don’t expect my kids will feel like they are spoiled – they’ll probably feel deprived.

Substance Abuse Counseling
This text focuses on empirically validated ways of treating substance abusers. The authors emphasize a variety of current models and methods, and identify approaches that are still controversial. They suggest that substance abuse counselling is adapted specifically to the needs of the client. A special chapter covers the assessment and diagnosis of substance use disorders and offers a unique look at the differences between users and abusers. Relapse treatment is discussed at length, and special topics include basic pharmacology, prevention in in-and-out patient treatment settings, and the effects of substance abuse on families. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on courses of alcohol and drug abuse counselling in departments of counsellor education, social work, health and human services.

The term drug abuse does not exclude dependency, but is otherwise used in a similar manner in nonmedical contexts. The terms have a huge range of definitions related to taking a psychoactive drug or performance enhancing drug for a non-therapeutic or non-medical effect.
