Be honest, don't tell lies as we will find out and you will loose their trust. Be straightforward and give them the feeling that you are there for them.

What you say to them is much less important than how you listen to them. Bring up the topic as often as you'd like to discuss it. The important thing is to teach them that this isn't taboo. That it is safe to talk about drugs and alcohol with you. Hopefully creating that degree of comfort between you will mean that they come to you for help when they encounter it.
