Résumé : |
The six key messages are:
- We estimate there are between 250,000 and 350,000 children of problem drug users in the UK – about one for every problem drug user. - Parental problem drug use can and does cause serious harm to children at every age from conception to adulthood. - Reducing the harm to children from parental problem drug use should become a main objective of policy and practice. - Effective treatment of the parent can have major benefits for the child. - By working together, services can take many practical steps to protect and improve the health and well-being of affected children. - The number of affected children is only likely to decrease when the number of problem drug users decreases |
