Drug and alcohol experimentation is fairly common during adolescence. If the problem persists however, adolescent substance abuse can become extremely problematic and affect the child's future due to increased risks of high school drop-out, adult addiction etc... If a parent knows of a drug problem it is better to nip it in the bud immediately and intervene as quick as possible. There are drug and alcohol treatment facilities for teens in a variety of different settings.
There are rehabs in Liverpool which treat adolescents in a manner which they can continue their education at the same time, which would be considered an outpatient program. These programs deliver counseling and behavioral modification therapy to adolescents on an individual and group basis 2-3 times per week. For adolescents requiring more aggressive intervention, there are programs that have inpatient and residential treatment so that they can benefit from full involvement type treatment and not be distracted by other things in life. If substance abuse has been a re-occuring problem, it is more than likely that environmental factors trigger their substance abuse problem in which case inpatient/residential treatment is the ideal option.
