JUST SAY NO (UNTIL YOUR 15th BIRTHDAY PARTY)

The journal Psychological Science has published some more obvious research, discovering that the younger you are when you start drinking and doing drugs, the more likely you are to have drug and alcohol-related issues as an adult. The study found that children who used alcohol or drugs before the age of 15 were two to three times more likely to develop addictions, contract STDs, drop out of school or become criminals. The research also came to the astounding conclusion that young females who use drugs and alcohol before the age of 15 have higher pregnancy rates than those who don’t. (Yahoo News)
