Editorial Review
Endorsed by Dr. Laura on her national radio show on April 28, 2008:
"PREVENTING ADDICTION focuses on current research that strongly suggests that a "critical timeframe exists in the life of a young person in which exposure to certain substances (that we don't necessarily consider to be drugs in a traditional sense) can trigger addiction." The book challenges the common beliefs about addiction, and imparts wisdom learned through years of seeing first-hand drug abuse and its impact on families and society from a practicing physician. Dr. Fleming feels that it is imperative to know that addiction almost always begins during childhood and adolescence. Furthermore, he believes that everyone should be aware that every child is potentially a future drug addict. In PREVENTING ADDICTION Dr. Fleming provides answers to questions that continue to perplex many parents and Dr. Fleming provides a step-by-step "blueprint" arranged by age for raising a non-addicted child. I highly recommend it.
by Dr. Laura Schlessinger, The Dr. Laura Show, a nationally syndicated radio talk show.
Written by Louisiana's family doctor of the year for 2007 and the father of four, Preventing Addiction: What Parents Must Do to Immunize Their Kids Against Alcohol and Drug Addiction provides answers to questions that continue to perplex many parents: * Why can't our kids "just say no" to alcohol and drugs? * What do we need to know to immunize our kids against addiction? * What do we need to do to prevent addiction? Combining the latest scientific research with the important principles involved in building moral character in young people, Dr. Fleming provides: * Indisputable facts about the consequences of early first use of addicting substances on the developing brain. * Critical information about depression, attention-span disorders, and other conditions that contribute to addiction. * Tools and techniques to help parents prevent early first use, at all costs! * A "blueprint" for rearing a non-addicted child.

A Must-Read Book for All Parents 
2007-01-04
Dr. Fleming has written a "must read" book for all parents! He gives specific suggestions on how to raise your child from birth through the difficult teen years so that they will not fall into the trap of using addictive substances, from tobacco to alcohol to drugs of all kinds. Well written with substance. Emphasis is given to raising children in a Christian home with lots of love and trust while at the same time, with teenagers in particular, to "trust but verify".
Very useful book on preventing addiction! 2006-12-28
This is a great book for parents who want to keep their children from becoming alcoholics and drug addicts - a parent's worst nightmare. It's a useful resource that both gives practical advice to parents as well as helps us understand the body's response to addiction. For instance, Fleming doesn't just tell us to start concerning ourselves with our children's exposure to drugs and alcohol when they reach the frightful teen years but implores us to realize that preventing addiction begins in elementary school. Also, this isn't simply a `just say no' book full of trite platitudes but a well-researched yet readable approach to the issues at hand. I highly recommend this book.
Preventing Addiction by Dr. J. C. Fleming: A Review 2006-12-10
This excellent book is designed for parents of teens and youngsters who need the ammunition to prevent addiction problems. The author, being a Doctor of Medicine in Family Practice, has seen his share of addiction problems, so you are getting the advice of a professional in the area. His organization, descriptions, and methods of combatting and preventing addiction are just unsurpassed. The book is written in a straight forward manner with language that non-professionals can easily understand. You feel as if you were seated in Dr. Fleming's office, talking with him one on one. The book is just a superior resource. Sincerely, Dr. Lee Walker
