But you're also faced with many challenges, and it's often hard to know how to talk about these challenges with your child. That's why we've created this Video Learning Center, specifically for military families. In the videos, you will hear ideas on how to start talking, tips on what to say and how to access resources if your child is using drugs or drinking.
