2. The problem of alcoholism, drug abuse and smoking among young people is one of the most pressing problems in our country.

3. Why do they start?
People who smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol usually start at a young age. Most are influenced by their parents, family members, or just being around multiple people who smoke. Of course, teenagers are getting used to these pictures since childhood, learn from their parents and continue the «tradition».

4. Youth smoking is a scourge of our time
In the 21st century teenagers in Russia take on a cigarette, just crossing the threshold of the school. Why is this happening? Uncontrolled advertising and films inspire them with the idea that smoking will make them more solid and create an attractive image.
But the companies that produce tobacco are unlikely to show what happens to smokers.

5. Open your eyes
Smokers are quickly losing youth, beauty and attractiveness. They are replaced by wrinkles and diseases.
However, premature aging is not the worst consequence. Smokers can harm their children or have serious diseases.

6. Trying to fight
Many Western countries are trying to cope with bad habits of the population by means of advertising.

7. Advertising is a powerful weapon
The pack shows a possible consequence of smoking
«Every breath you take will eventually shorten your life.»

8. Alcohol and its consequences
Alcohol is addictive and enslaving. Soon the person becomes a slave to his habits. He starts to degrade and lose his mind. Irreversible changes occur in the body (liver enlargement, reduction of brain cells, hormonal background)

9. Drug addiction
Among young people the use of the so-called "soft" drugs is becoming increasingly popular . Here are the statistics showing the age at which people first tried marijuana. In fact, taking drugs is the worst habit of all. A lot of people try drugs out of curiosity. However, they can develop a dependence even after the first try.

10. People have no future
The results of this addiction will not keep you waiting. The life of drug users may turn into a nightmare.

11. Break the vicious circle
However, nowadays young people understand that something must be done to free teenagers from these vices. There are many youth movements for a healthy lifestyle that will positively affect the opinions of young people about drugs.

12. Remember that you must have your own opinion and not succumb to provocations. Quitting is difficult. It's easier not to start.
