Drugs & Peer Pressure

by Waln Brown

Overview

A leading cause of drug use and abuse is peer pressure. In fact, millions of teenagers give in to pressure from peers and first use drugs to gain acceptance of kids who already use drugs. Thus, teens whose friends or acquaintances use drugs are likely to experience pressure to do the same.

This basic guide contains "need to know" information about peer group influences on youths to use and abuse alcohol and other drugs, how to identify it and deal with it and where to get additional help and further information.
