Abstract
Adolescents are at a pivotal stage in their lives, where their peer groups significantly influence their choices and habits. These choices can have lasting effects, both positive and negative, into adulthood. It is crucial to educate them about the dangers of substance abuse early on to prevent addiction to harmful substances that can adversely impact their health for years to come. This paper will focus on adolescent use of alcohol—particularly binge drinking—marijuana, and tobacco products.
