Risk behavior is the name given to the conduct of a person who acts on impulse and without considering the consequences, exposing himself to danger situations. It is quite common in adolescence because it is a phase of life in which values are still being formed, there are many doubts and a need to be free through acts of rebellion. It is therefore important for young people to be well informed and aware of the consequences of such inappropriate behavior.
For example, alcohol consumption can be considered risky behavior when it is done irresponsibly. Alcohol affects an individual's judgment and may lead them to engage in dangerous situations such as accidents and fights.
