Sibiling Influence

Sibling influence is a positive way to avoid drugs. Often younger siblings will look up to their older brother or sister and do exactly what they are doing. If an older sibiling is focusing on school, and avoiding drugs and alcohol the younger sibiling will want to the same as, they realize that it is working successfully for their older brother/sister. But, this could work in a negative way also. If a child notices that a "role model" is drinking and has alot of friends they will try and do the same because they think it makes them cool. So if you are an older sibling I advise from personal experience to always do your best and to provide a positive influence for the younger adolesence.
