According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
Monitor kids’ activities.
(SAMHSA), almost half of teens say it is easy to get prescription drugs from a parent’s medicine cabinet. It is your responsibility as the adult of the house to safely store drugs in a place inaccessible by kids and teens. As a parent, you can help keep your child safe from prescription drugs by doing the following:
Recognize signs of misuse or abuse.
Keep medicines in a locked, safe place.
Share disapproval of prescription drug abuse.
