Some people may also take a drug or drink alcohol because they like the way it makes them feel. Alcohol and drug abuse is a leading cause of teen death. These drugs also may contain bacteria, dangerous chemicals. So don't drug or drink any alcohol it is a very bad habit.

Teens use alcohol also take a drug or drink alcohol because they like the way it makes them feel. Or they may believe that it makes them more grown up. Teens tend to try new things and take risks, and they may take drugs or drink alcohol because it seems exciting.
