Av-og-til, a Norwegian organization dedicated to preventing alcohol-related harm, has launched a campaign to encourage parents to have open and honest conversations with their teenagers about alcohol. The campaign highlights the vulnerability of young people, especially in their late teens, when exposed to alcohol. The campaign emphasizes the importance of family discussions about alcohol and provides practical tips for parents to navigate these sensitive conversations.
The campaign also addresses common challenges parents face, such as managing drinking pressures from peers and what to do if their child comes home intoxicated. Av-og-til encourages parents to set clear rules, collaborate with other parents in their community, and offer unconditional support to their children, even in difficult situations. By fostering open communication and setting boundaries, parents can play a crucial role in helping their teenagers make informed choices and avoid the negative consequences of alcohol.
