“…There is ample evidence that children whose parents drink excessively are at risk of problem drinking themselves, which in part may reflect genetic susceptibility [37,38]. Moreover, parental alcohol problems often co-occur with other risk factors for adolescent heavy drinking, such as family dysfunction, maltreatment and neglect, and other adverse childhood experiences [39,40]. There is also evidence that the more the parents drink, the greater is the availability of alcohol at home [41,42], which has been identified as another risk factor for adolescent heavy drinking [43].…”

“…For children, parental substance use increases risks of: experiencing abuse/neglect (Cunningham & Finlay, 2012; Miller & Jang, 1977; Young, Boles, & Otero, 2007); using substances as an adolescent (Obot, Wagner, & Anthony, 2001); and developing mental health problems (Cuijpers, Langendoen, & Bijl, 1999; Kelley & Fals-Stewart, 2004; Obot & Anthony, 2004) and/or behavioral problems (Stanger et al, 1999). Existing literature on the relationship between parental substance use and their children’s school performance generally finds that children exposed to parental substance use do worse than others (Chandy, Harris, Blum, & Resnick, 1993; Hyphantis, Koutras, Liakos, & Marselos, 1991; Jennison, 2014; Marcus, 1986; McGrath, Watson, & Chassin, 1999; Rimmer, 1982; Serec et al, 2012; Torvik, Rognmo, Ask, Røysamb, & Tambs, 2011). …”

Objective This study examined the intergenerational effects of parental conviction of a substance-related charge on children’s academic performance and, conditional on a conviction, whether completion of an adult drug treatment court (DTC) program was associated with improved school performance. Method State administrative data from North Carolina courts, birth records, and school records were linked for 2005–12. Math and reading end-of-grade test scores and absenteeism were examined for 5 groups of children, those with parents who: were not convicted on any criminal charge, were convicted on a substance-related charge and not referred by a court to a DTC, were referred to a DTC but did not enroll, enrolled in a DTC but did not complete, and completed a DTC program. Results Accounting for demographic and socioeconomic factors, the school performance of children whose parents were convicted of a substance-related offense was worse than that of children whose parents were not convicted on any charge. These differences were statistically significant but substantially reduced after controlling for socioeconomic characteristics, e.g., mother’s educational attainment. We found no evidence that parent participation in an adult DTC program led to improved school performance of their children. Conclusion While the children of convicted parents fared worse on average, much—but not all—of this difference was attributed to socioeconomic factors, with the result that parental conviction remained a risk factor for poorer school performance. Even though adult DTCs have been shown to have other benefits, we could detect no intergenerational benefit in improved school performance of their children.

“…The data shows that students at SNSG drink alcohol with their friends more often than with their peers at SNCIZ, but there is no statistically significant relationship between socializing with friends because of drinking alcohol and two secondary nursing schools. Jennison (19) in his national representative longitudinal study found out that parental alcohol abuse increases the risk for alcohol abuse in their offspring. Young people whose biological father is a heavy drunker have three times greater behavioral problems.…”

In recent decades, the issue of alcohol (ab)use among young people has become a subject of numerous discussions and one of the most often topics on the agenda of political structures (1). Ule notes that in the last decade conditions of growing up have been changing and are significantly reflected in a series of conflicts which increase vulnerability and sensitivity of young people who are more often prone to alcohol abuse (2). Stigler, Neusel and Perry (3) indicate that secondary schools are important settings for inter-Sažetak Ishodišta: Uživanje alkohola je rašireno i među učenicima srednjih medicinskih škola. Ovaj fenomen zahtijeva intenzivan rad na osvješćivanju učenika i angažiranje učitelja koji bi učenike trebali poučiti o opasnostima prekomjernog uživanja alkohola i njegovim štetnim posljedicama. Cilj: Utvrditi visinu rizika uživanja alkohola i stupanj osviještenosti glede posljedica zloupotrebe alkohola među učenicima dviju srednjih medicinskih škola te usporedba rezultata. Uzorak i metode: Za prikupljanje podataka korišten je nestandardizirani upitnik, koji je ispunilo 140 učenika četvrtoga razreda Srednje medicinske škole Slovenj Gradec (SNSG) i Srednje medicinske i kozmetičke škole Izola (SNCIZ). Upotrijebljena je deskriptivna statistika. Rezultati su testirani kontingentnim tablicama, Hi-kvadratnim testom i t-testom. Sve vrijednosti smatrane su statistički značajnim kad je p < 0,05. Rezultati: U zadnja tri mjeseca omjer opijenih/intoksiciranih učenika bio je viši u SNSG, gdje je bilo opijenih 23 (40 %) učenika do tri puta, a u SNCIZ četiri (8 %), što je statistički znakovita razlika (p = 0.01). Učenici se slažu da alkohol šteti zdravlju. S tom tvrdnjom složilo se 40 (69 %) učenika SNSG i 35 (74 %) u SNCIZ. Zaključak: Učenici vrlo malo znaju o štetnosti alkohola, s obzirom na to da velika većina razlikuje znakove opijenosti, ali ne i štetne učinke dugotrajnog uživanja alkohola. U budućnosti je potrebno podignuti osviještenost učenika o štetnosti utjecaja alkohola primjenom različitih zdravstveno-obrazovnih aktivnosti. Ključne riječi: učenici • alkohol • zloupotreba • osviještenost Kratki naslov: alkohol i učenici
