people think its not a big deal because they don't realize what the drugs are doing to them. half those people think that because their teens and most teens may think doing drugs is cool and relaxing. teens do drugs just to fit in and be cool. drugs are actually stupid to do.
Peer pressure mostly. People think that if others do it and then they do it it makes them cool.
Because they think it's so cool
There is no better influence than showing the consequences. Drugs have an adverse effect on the body and the person's life in general. Showing these consequences and their severity will make teens think twice before considering doing drugs.
just becase
Teens do matter. In fact, they matter a lot because they are the future decision makers of the world. If your question is "Why do people think teens don't matter?" then I have a simple question for you. Why do people think anything? People think what they think because of past experiences, religion, and I don't like it, but word of mouth. If you hear so many news reports about teens getting pregnant, teens doing drugs, teens stealing, dropping out of school, and having sex, you'll start to develop an opinion. Right now, a lot of this stuff is happening with teens, and so the opinion (made by common sense) is as strong and popular as ever. It is a form of stereotyping, in a way. It's not too late though, you can still make a difference. Do good in school, follow your heart, and don't let in to temptation!
to escape.
They think it's cool.
Many people have died from the use of drug abuse. I know from true experience that many teenagers die because they think they will be alright from the first use and then they can get addicted but that wont effect them but truthfully it will. Many teens die from the use of drugs.aka TONS OF PEOPLE so....don't do drugs theyre bad 4 u....soz alcohal (spell check???)I think the girl above was trying to say that many TEENS do die from drugs abuse it is very common, I myself am a teen I am 15 years old and I did drugs at the age of 8 to the age of 12, I wasn't a teen yet but I was close to it, I did it for personal reasons because of my child hood. BUT that's not my point, Thousands maybe millions of teens die everyday from drug abuse, it is not a good thing to do at all, do not ever try drugs because they are addicting and will harm your body in many ways you never thought possible.Actually, its about 3.8 teens die from drugs every day. Only off by about 1,999,996 dead people. Hey, I am writing a paper on teen drug use, can anyone find the # of teens hospitalized per year due to drug use?
I seriosly think that they are just mindless when they think so mabe they want to stop but befor the no or think about it they are druged so dont try it.
i think the average 0oo4 teen t started doing drug &smokingwell for smoking is thirteen
People can get into drugs if they are stressed and there life isn't going as well as they think it could or they could bet pressured into doing it by their friends who think it is cool.
