TIPS FOR PARENTS

It is important to know the facts about drugs and drug testing even if you trust your child. It is known that many children, often very good children, make bad choices when it comes to experimenting with drugs. Whether it is curiosity, peer pressure, or another reason, the reality is that a lot of children try drugs. Clear Results Home Drug Test offers you a confidential, fast, and accurate way to test your child in the comfort of your own home.

Before you are about to test your child, we suggest:

• Don’t offer your child any warning that you are about to test them.
• Test the morning urine. Morning urine is usually the most concentrated.
• Keep the door of the bathroom open while the chid is urinating in the cup. Make sure that the cup is handed directly to you.
• Since you are performing the test for your child, put the lid on yourself and keep it in your line of sight during the testing time.

Be sure to remember that if you show a Preliminary Positive Result, we suggest you reach out to your healthcare provider or doctor to set up a formal testing for your child.
