DOES YOUR CHILD HAVE A BRAIN?

The Partnership for a Drug Free America has just released an interactive "tool" to decode the teenage brain. It  helps explain why our teens do what they do.

This is a great site for background, tools, links and other information to help us raise our kids. We recommend you visit this new section: www.drugfree.org/teenbrain.
