Nowadays drugs are very present in teenager´s habits and lives. It is a fact that teens start drinking alcohol at 13 years of age. But the majority of parents think that their sons start with 15 or 16.
The worst of all is that for teens, drugs are the mostly funny thing to do in their weekends with their friends; And they aren´t concious about how damaging can be the drugs for their health.
The cause which makes that teens start to consume drugs is that they haven´t found their purpose or their goal in life.
Teens that don´t have a goal, have more free time and are bored too. They aren´t interested in activities or they don´t look for something that could entertain them. Also exist people who use drugs to scape from their problems. They see a world without problems in drugs. When the effect ends, problems come back again; And it can be dangerous because finally drugs ``kidnap´´ you, and is so difficult to scape.
A solution could be reading books that help these teens to discover what they want in lfe. Is very important that parents have a trust relationship with them. This could be useful because they will see in their parents a support instead of an enemy.
