Screenagers Under the Influence:  Addressing Vaping, Drugs, and Alcohol in the Digital Age delves into how the tech revolution has reshaped adolescence and its effects on substance use.  The film debunks myths and depicts strategies parents and schools can use to encourage healthy decision-making, support teen mental health, set limits, and create healthy home environments.  Most documentaries on substance use focus on severe addiction. This film explores more common scenarios and interweaves cutting-edge science with personal stories, making it informative and entertaining for both young people and adults.
