Background: Substance abuse has the potential to change value orientations and affects all aspects of human life. Objectives: The text aims to show the shift in value orientations of respondents who use addictive substances compared to respondents who do not. Methodology: One-way ANOVA was used in the statistical analysis of the dependence of the values on the occurrence of abusive behaviour, with dependencies at the level of p ≤ 0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: There were statistically significant differences between the group of respondents with abstinence from each addictive substance and the group of respondents without abstinence. Substance abuse shifts pro-family values towards greater individualization and thus threatens and destabilizes the family. It strengthens community-oriented values and weakens family-oriented values. Conclusions: The transformation of the value system leads to a destabilization of family ties, which cease to be a priority. Working with values should be an opportunity for social pedagogy, social work, and all types of schools. Non-formal and informal education present particular opportunities for values education. In many cases, it is unnecessary to change the value system, but only to show the non-deviant way of fulfilling values.

Background: The WHO European Region has the highest alcohol consumption of all six WHO regions. The research presented here is conducted in the Czech Republic, which has the highest average per capita alcohol consumption in Europe. The problem of alcoholism among children and adults is still not sufficiently perceived by Czech society as a risk and threat to the population's future health. Objective: The research aimed to confirm a relationship between the onset of alcohol consumption at a young age and the amount/frequency of current alcohol consumption. Method: Data analysis was conducted on a representative sample of children aged 6-17 (n= 2948; man:1492; 50,61 %; woman: 1456; 49,39%). Only 36.87% of children in our sample do not drink alcohol at all. 6.28% of children tasted alcohol for the first time before the age of 6. 19.30% tasted alcohol between the ages of 6 and 10, and 38.16% between the ages of 11 and 14. Results: The research confirms the association between early initiation of alcohol consumption and increased risk of binge drinking at older ages. Children who drink alcohol daily start very early. Children who consume alcohol only infrequently start drinking after age 15. Conclusion: The text intends to draw attention to the fact that despite existing prevention programs and interventions, alcohol consumption among children and adolescents is still a severe and contemporary problem related to the high tolerance of society towards alcohol consumption. The degree of denormalization of underage drinking in the Czech Republic is still low. However, even if we accept the thesis of gradual demoralization of drinking, which is based on the assumption of declining alcohol consumption, it appears that early initiation of drinking is thus becoming an increasingly important indicator of wider risk behavior and needs increased attention.
