You may think that you have little influence on your child, but the truth is parents often underestimate how much influence they have on their children. Studies have shown that even from an early age children develop ideas and attitudes about alcohol.

Parents and carers can play a key role in promoting a responsible attitude to alcohol.
Research shows that children may be protected from the negative effects of drinking if they have strong bonds with
family and if their parents:
• recognise and praise positive behaviour;
• set healthy examples;
• have accurate knowledge of the negative effects of alcohol.

If children are required to isolate at home 

In future, if children must learn from home due to isolation, we offer various options which they can make use of.  There are a number of resources on the site which are always free, two week free trials are available and school subscriptions are temporarily valid for pupils to use from home. In addition to this our sister sites, SpellingPlay and PhonicsPlayComics remain free.

Many of us enjoy a drink when at home or out with friends, but alcohol is a powerful drug and we need to be careful how we use it. Drinking too much can seriously affect our health.
