C. Friends who use drugs
Teens may give in to peer pressure and abuse drugs because they are influenced by their friends who use drugs. The desire to fit in, be accepted, or be part of a social group can make it difficult for them to refuse drug use, even if they know it might be harmful. This influence can overpower their self-esteem, refusal skills, or self-assurance.
