Question

If you were an editor of a teen magazine, would you print a story about a movie star who overdoses on illegal drugs? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Yes, I would. It's a bit ill-mannered for such a young audience but children are not acting like children anymore. As more and more teenagers experiment with nicotine, vape, prescription medications and so forth, publishing such a story is absolutely necessary.

Answer 2

I would print a story about it because it can show what doing drugs does to you. I would put the side effects so that teens would know why it is not safe to do drugs. I would also put the possibilities of overdoses.
