The NSDUH Report - -Parental Involvement in Preventing Youth Substance Use
Highlights: Findings from the 2007 NSDUH suggest that the majority of parents clearly express their disapproval of youth substance use and are actively engaged in the day-to-day life of their children. However, the data also indicate that both parental involvement and perceived disapproval of youth substance use both are more prevalent for younger than for older youths.
