cigarettes affect your health because they damage your lungs. alcohol rots the brain and other parts of the body. weed messes with your brain also. it kills your brain cells.
now, i know that most people find these things damaging, but the people who smoke cigarettes, weed, and drink alcohol, find these things helpful in relaxing them and getting them through life. its their little boost. now, i know they probably wont learn better until something tragic happens, but, at least they have some sense left and their own mentality isn't unraveling like it would if they didn't do those things. those people know the consequences, but frankly, they just don't care. at least their HAPPY.

like u said it bad for people. people knows it relaxing but noone should do it because it bad for it.
Interesting response. You make a good argument: leave people to their own devices. If that's how they get their "boost" than let them. If it destroys their mental and physical health, let them. What bothers me about the argument, though, is that teenagers make bad decisions--that's pretty much the definition of being a teenager. So to stand back and let them do what they will is assuming they know what's best for themselves...and I'm not sure if I agree with that. It's one thing to occasionally experiment, but it's another thing to make it a regular habit and to go to school/work under the influence. When teens get out of control, it's the job of their friends, family, teachers, etc. to step in and help them find other ways to get their "boost." Agree or disagree?
