Sibling influence in illegal drugs and teens

Sibling influence can be a major part in a child's life. A siblings behavior can determine whether or not their younger or older siblings will do drugs. If a sibling is a straight "A" student who hasn't ever touched a drug or alcohol, their siblings are more likely to not be addicted to drugs. On the other hand, someone who is failing school and does drugs, their siblings are more prone to being addicted to drugs or alcohol. For example, if a senior in high school is skipping school and doing drugs, his younger sibling is more likely to do that. An older persons influence is extremely important to those who look up to them.
