Answer 1

Talk with them about these issues from a very young age
be open with them and open minded
be involved with their lives
know where your kids are and who they are with
be a good influence, show them that life can be fun without these vices
teach them to be leaders...not followers
this is just a few things that come to mind....

Answer 2

teach pigs to fly aka you can't ensure that they won't do that unless you lock them in a bubble world. The more you protect them the more they rebel. Talk every once in while and say hey kiddo how's life? You can make sure they have what they need. Like books, Ensurance of Respect, Love, but don't over protect them. They'll feel they can't talk to you when they mess up. Tell them that nothing they could do could make you stop loving them. Listen to them, they might have better ideas than me. But rules aren't always bad but some rules can seem and even be outrageous.

Answer 3

what we can do as parents is be as much a part of their life as possible, knowing where there at all the time, knowing who their friends are, what their friends parents are like, and talking to them about serious issue,s like smoking, drugs and alcohol and what it does to your system. be there for them when they come to you with questions know when to talk and when to listen.
Too many parents neglect their children's needs now a days and then they wonder why they're kids turned out the way they did. it,s better to react now and be a part of their life than to get that one dreaded call at 2:am in the morning telling you your child has died in an alcohol related accident.

Answer 4

Start by talking to them and not being judgmental. Talk to them about anything and everything. Ask them questions about what they think about drugs, alcohol and smoking. See what's on their minds. Assure them that they can come to you for anything. And make them realize that if they want an honest answer about anything, they can come to you because you want only what is best for them. Don't go to their friends for serious answers, because if they don't know, what makes them think that their friends know, especially when they are around the same age group. Good luck.

Answer 5

Unfortunately there is no answer for this question. You can lecture your children on the importance of all of those problems and why they are bad and they may end up doing them anyway.

Everyone is born with free will. They will just have to make the right choices for themselves when they get there.

I wish I had a better answer for you
Good luck

Answer 6

Talk to them, educate them, love them, be involved in their lives and then....hope for the best. There are no guarantees, peer pressure is rough, all you can do is let them know the consequences of what could happen and trust them to do the right thing. Also get them involved in activities, if they are busy doing sports or scouting ..whatever, means less time...idle time for bad habits to start.

Answer 7

Live by what you say. Don't smoke, drink, do drugs, or have questionable friends. If you are an honorable person, then your children will listen to you.

Answer 8

When they talk, listen, make sure that they can come to you about any and everything with out you freaking out. Be understandable, know when to be a friend and when to be a parent. And dont let them be in control, you as parents should be in total control.

Answer 9

First dont do any of these things,second show lots of love,third spend lots of time with your children,listen to what they have to say,try talking instead of yelling.Most of all always be encouraging in letting them know they can do anything they set their heart to.Good luck God bless:O)

Answer 10

First, you have to start with discipline at a young age. If they're not used to listening to you when they're young they won't when they're older. Love them unconditionally and respect them - they won't be afraid to talk with you about anything. Talk to them, give them information. Let them know that you believe in them and that you have high expectations for them. They'll want to live up to them. And ask questions - show an interest in their lives and know what they are doing and who with.
