Solution

The correct option is B

False


During adolescence, teens are physically, mentally and emotionally agitated due to a lot of changes taking place in their body and mind. They sometimes feel confused and insecure due to the stress caused by hormonal secretions. By this time they may become prey to drugs and alcohol thinking it's a stress reliever. It's not true because these drugs and alcohol give a temporary feeling of elation which in the long term affects our internal organs like the liver. Moreover, drugs are very addictive and once taken, teens develop a tendency to take them again and again.
