My child is experimenting with drugs, will they become an addict? It's natural to feel anxious and concerned. The most important thing is not to panic. There's no strong evidence to suggest that young people who experiment will become regular drug users. It's actually a small minority of people who use 'soft drugs' (like cannabis) that'll move onto other drugs.
