Answer:

There are many different ways a teenager can be influenced and have reasons to take or not to take drugs. Some external reasons a teen might use or decide not to use drugs could be peer pressure or the consquences of breaking the law. Teens might also have internal reasons, such as whether it's morally right/worng, trying to escape bad thoughts or memories, and trying to cope with and/or fix a mental health problem.

I just had a big test on marijuana, steroids and inhalants

One of the reasons a teen would choose not to do marijuana is because it can cause you to have short term memory lose. It can also cause you to loose you’re coordination. It also can cause some one to have lung problems.

Hope this helps you have a great day!!
Good luck
