Submitted by Luciana Pimentel on Wednesday, October 13, 2004 at 12:08:04 PM EST.
Nowadays , adolescents are much more addicted to everything , for example , drugs , marginality , violence and the immature and insecure sex.
The immature sex brings many risks because when we are young , we don´t have too much responsibility with what can happen to one immature and unwanted pregnancy and also other things like transmission of AIDS.
Irresponsibility can influence people using drugs too .
The adolescents end up using drugs to attract the attention of people or for fun in a group of friends.
Drugs influence the immature sex because when people use drugs they are vulnerable to have sex relations .
Sometimes TV influences the use of drugs and also immature sex.
Many adolescents don´t talk with their parents about sex or drugs because these kinds of topics are a taboo for them.
