Did you know that there are four contributing factors that may lead to an increase in substance abuse among learners in school? These factors include peer pressure, stress, lack of parental involvement, and easy accessibility to drugs. Peer pressure can greatly influence students to experiment with drugs or engage in substance abuse to fit in with their peers. High levels of stress, such as academic pressure or personal problems, can drive students towards substance abuse as a coping mechanism. Additionally, a lack of parental involvement and guidance can leave students vulnerable to risky behaviors, including drug abuse. Finally, easy accessibility to drugs in or around schools can make it more likely for learners to experiment with substances. By understanding these contributing factors, we can take steps to address them and create a safer and healthier learning environment for all students.
