Talking To Kids About Chronic Illness

One of the most difficult things any parent will ever have to do is talk to their children about death and serious illness. Ideally this would be a chat had at the dinner table about hypothetical situations that could, and probably will, happen in the future. But not every family has that luxury.

What Legalization of Marijuana Means for Your Teen

Cannabis, also known as marijuana or pot, is a plant used as a psychoactive drug or medicine. Most countries have outlawed cannabis, including the US where cannabis is a Schedule 1 substance.

The good news: Legalization is for adults at least 21 years of age.
