Smoking
Teen smoking is on the rise and it is a problem. Because parent don’t care what their children or child does. They also sneak off away from people, and go under bridges or in alleys.

You could teach them why and how it is not good to smoke at all. Many young adults, when they turn 18 they start buying cigarettes even thou they know the consequences and causes, but all what they want to do is to look good in front of other people.

Stop showing TV commercials and TV ads about them. Get rid of magazine ads so teens don’t think it look good because some big tough guy is doing it or some famous person is doing it. Stop having famous people tell you about them in the radio and on TV and in magazines. Also,
