Things Have Changed is a common-sense guide for parents and educators to navigating mental health and substance misuse to improve the odds of their children’s (and students’) joy and success.

Now more than ever, parents need better information about the challenges facing their children, what sorts of issues to expect and when, and the warning signs to look for.

From anxiety and depression to addiction, eating disorder, and loneliness, students and their families are facing mental health and substance misuse epidemics that require new guidance.

As a creator of The William Magee Institute for Student Wellbeing at the University of Mississippi—named in honor of his late son, William, who died of an accidental overdose—David Magee now travels the country to educate students, parents, and educators about issues impacting student wellbeing, including alcohol, marijuana, and the life-threatening fentanyl risk.

Now, Magee distills these lessons in Things Have Changed, helping parents deliver earlier and better-informed messaging to their kids about:

  • Delaying/limiting substance use
  • Asking for help when they need it
  • Investing in healthy relationships
  • Being intentional about social media
  • Never underestimating the value of sleep
  • Engaging with family
  • Finding something greater than themselves (faith or similar) to yield more joy

Written with a parent’s passion and empathy, Things Have Changed offers a clear road map for navigating the increasingly common and painful struggles and ushering in a new era of student wellbeing.
