Marijuana is illegal because it can make people hallucinate and others can use it in food that is laced with it which can cause death. Some ppl say u can't overdose on it but that is not true

Many factors influence whether an adolescent tries drugs, including the availability of drugs within the neighborhood, community, and school and whether the adolescent’s friends are using them. The family environment is also important: Violence, physical or emotional abuse, mental illness, or drug use in the household increase the likelihood an adolescent will use drugs.
