The Adolescent Period. By Lupita Paredes Escalante

 The adolescence period

I totally agree that adolescence is a period where the brain starts to

develop and hormonal changes occur.

Among the factors are social pressure and the feeling of acceptance of it that

they do these acts.

The adolescent brain is definitely not “mature” to consume these substances.

It can affect the development of vital organs such as the brain. Beginning to

drink before 16 can increase the risk of heart disease and psychological

problems such as aggressiveness, unstable mood, and memory problems.
