Teen Drug Abuse

Drugs affect teens everywhere. It is a very large problem in today's
society. Almost all teens have at least once been faced with the choice of drug use.
It mostly comes from peers. And sometimes even parents. It is all on them whether they choose to use them or not. We can only help their decision by explaining the effects of drugs. Also keeping a good eye on them. Like know who they're with and where they are going. Not be too strict because that usually makes teens want to do it more. Being too strict can sometimes makes teens want to rebel. But giving them their freedom at the same time as knowing what they're doing And who they're with will keep them respecting the parent and less likely to do drugs.
Teens just need to think about how drugs are going to affect their lives. They might feel good but it has a lot of negative effects. More bad then good.
Like it can stop you from maturing. And just completely destroy your body.
Your lungs, your teeth, your skin, and your brain. There is so many things that just make drugs not even worth it or not sound good. just imagine being a 30 year old pot head who has the thought process of a fifteen year old. Or becoming addicted to meth or any other drug. And having no or very little teeth. And the teeth you do have are rotting. And having scars all over your body from picking at your skin while you were high. Tell me, what employer is going to hire someone like that, Or What girl is going to want a man like that. or man want a woman like that.
I think teens really need to think about the future before they act. And even if they think “oh I won't get addicted I am only gonna do it once”. You never know with drugs, Just one time could get you addicted. or after you try it you know it feels good so you want to get higher and higher and then next thing you know you
in jail, or in a rehabilitation clinic. Or even dead. Almost everyone who begins using drugs doesn't expect to be an addict. And have their whole life just go down the toilet just to feel good for a few hours.
