Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Learning coping skills (option 4) will assist teens to resist substances. Forbidding TV (option 1), discussing substances as adult pleasures (option 2), and excusing rule breaking (option 3) will not necessarily prevent substance abuse.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Cough syrups contain alcohol and may trigger a physiological reaction with the Antabuse. The other options do not specifically apply to use of Antabuse.
