MCAP’s parent info night

The Medfield Press reports on the Medfield Cares About Prevention (MCAP) (www.MedfieldCares.org) parent information evening at Medfield High Schoola week ago.  Be a Parent Not a Pal

For me the major take away facts I have learned at MCAP are

• how much more likely our kids are to have later in life substance abuse problems, the younger they are when they start to use alcohol or marijuana, and
• that human brain development is not completed until the mid-twenties, and both alcohol and marijuana use can have disproportionately detrimental effects on those not fully formed brains.
