You may be unsure of when or how to begin and your student may dodge the conversation. However, it is important for you to be aware of the risks and consequences associated with alcohol so you can help your student be aware. Impaired judgment from drinking can lead to risky behavior causing academic, legal, and personal problems. It is important to understand the risks associated with drinking. To help start the conversation, Alcohol and Drug Education Programs has provided you with a list of eight discussion topics compiled by College Parents of America ( i ) (CPA). By having this conversation before your student arrives on campus, you help educate them so they can make responsible decisions. While parents may not be able to actively monitor students away from home, they can be available to talk and listen, and that is just as important.
