teens do drugs because drugs are fun and people who can't manage themselves and make intelligent drug related decisions are dummies and dummies shouldn't do drugs because they will make bad decisions and lead to even more unjustified stereotypes towards people that do and handle drugs

Teens do drugs to get away from life.. A boyfriend and girlfriend break-up is another thing that can cause drug use..  There are a many types of things to make a teen do drugs.. They may have  a family problem and also may have a problem that they feel like they have to hide or can't trust to tell anyone.. Its really all up to the teen that takes the drugs.. I'm a teen myself, and yes at times I personally think about taking them, but I am a better than that..  Parents have to think about the way they influence us teens..  I have a mom that is a diabetic..  My dad will personally tell me and others that he don't care about me..  He is a low- life..  I stay with my sister Katherine.. She has a good influence in and on me.. She tells me at times that i'm worth it, that i'm better than that, and that i could do better..  I love my sister..  If parents would really help us and sit down and talk to us, then maybe things would be better..  take advice from a teen.. Parents please talk to us..

      I think that teens do drugs because thats how they have been raised. I mean if you grow up around people doing nothing but doing drugs and drinking that shows you that  it is ok to do these things. Then also when you have teens living a hard life they turn to things that they think can make them money. This leads them to smoking things like crack or doing pills. so when it all comes down to it this is why i think teens do drugs.

teens do drugs because they are thinking cool and higher. They think that drugs is causing them relax and calm down. They are very crowded! They are very brat! It depends on teens can get depress and pure pressure from their schools, friends, family, grades and etc... Some of my friends do drugs. I asked them for reason to use the drugs... They said the drugs are making them relax and it is fun to doing it. Some of others are doing drugs because they hate their life... it sometimes they join the gang... ttyl!

i think that teens do drugs because they want to fit in with the crowd. another reason is is because they get bored and have nothing better to do so they think that that will make things better.or they think that theyre live is going horrible and that drugs will make their lives a lot better.

I think we should also deliberate on the appropriate intervention strategies to stop those teens that are already addicted and to prevent other teens who may join soon. What do you think?

Many teens do drugs because they are caught under the influence of peer pressure. Their parents may put too much pressure on their kids by either having too much expectations for them academically and if they dont meet these expectations they argue about it. Some teenagers can take the pressure but the students that cannot deal with it stray into takin drugs. They may think that drugs is an effective rebel actions.

why teens do drugs? some of teens used the drugs because they are thinkin that they are cool and just boring. they have to nothing with it. teens used the drugs before they decide to do. they just ahead with the drugs. many teens have many reasons to using the drugs. some of teens used the drugs from those parents who are used before. some of teens think the drugs help them relax and high. and other one thing, teens do think the drugs will help them to forget about all the happening with the problems. but it is still including the problems with the drugs. i give you one an example. example: one thing with the complete with drug and an emo, one girl argued with her mother and into the pure pressure and feeling to kill herself and her mother, and one girl decided to cut herself and she feels so calm down and happy to forget about all the problems with her mother. BUT it is so frequency to using cut herself/himself. it almost same as drug to causing to forget about the problems. and it frequencies to using the drugs complete with an emo. it is a true story. teens should think before to using the drugs. some of teens are rarely to using the drugs but they are around the people who are using the drugs. they are protect theirself. some of teens used the drugs because they are getting into the depressing who those friends and family are died, enemy or many reasons. some of teens used the drugs because they are around the people who are using drugs and seller drugs. often teens think that they are OK and wont appear the problem. it will happens to them into the future. some of teens are crowded and support each other. some of teens used the drugs because those parents are abusing, died, never to see those parents, having the problems, just for fun, just boring and ahead with the drugs, depressing, into the pure pressure, and manyyyy reasons.

some of kids and teens think that drugs will not addict with them. but it is still addicting. some of those bodies will not permit to addict. not all the happening. most adults think that drugs will make more addict with the drugs. it is not true. some of bodies wont work out for addict. teens will forget about the drugs. teens are using the drugs when they are first to using the drugs. it will addict or not.

some of my friends who are using the drugs. i asked them if they are addicting with the drugs. they said that it depends on those bodies and brain. most of time they are using the drugs very seldom. it is an interesting. one of my friend was seller the drug, he was trouble boy in his school. right now he is stop to using the drugs and he is going to a college. it surprises me! altogether i am glad that he is stop using the drugs. you should know what is around you with the drugs. you will more understand all the happening. you will find out how is taken and those people who are using the drugs. i have many experience with friends who are using but i just test on them how much they are using drugs, act, and behavior. i suggest you will find out with the friends who are using the drugs,,, you will find out whats going on.

why teens do drugs? it varies kind of drugs can affect those behavior, such as too frequency to used, how is taken, and how to using the drugs. most teens are used the drugs because they have MANY reason. you will find out. the drugs are not good for you and anyone. it is an illegal drug in united states. it is sad story for teens' life. sometimes teens used the drugs because they loathed with their life. it seems to use as too frequency. ask teens who were using the drugs before, ask them many questions. you will find out with gather the information.
