Outline- Teenage drug abuse is the symptom of many other problems in a teen. Unfortunately, some parents don't get active and effectively step in until drug abuse in teens has become an un-escapable problem. Teens present the most difficult type of addict to save from a life of addiction IF handled badly by adults. Teenage alcohol abuse follows a similar path. Alcohol, except while driving, is a more socially acceptable drug in this society.

Most teens don't start using drugs expecting to develop a substance abuse problem, and while most teens probably see their drug use as a casual way to have fun, there are negative effects that are a result of this use and abuse of alcohol and other drugs. The biggest consequence to casual drug use can be that it develops into a true addiction. Very few addicts recognize when they have crossed the line from casual use to addiction.
