Talking to Kids About Your Recovery

Kids are perceptive. They noticed the mood swings, the arguments, the morning-after mornings. Now that you're sober, they have questions—even if they're not asking them out loud. This program gives you age-specific frameworks for having honest, age-appropriate conversations about your recovery. Because silence doesn't protect them. It confuses them.
