Question

A role model is someone people admire and want to be like. Compare positive and negative role models for drug abuse. Write a paragraph that includes at least 2 characteristics for each type of role model.

Answer 1

Well, the types of role models for positive and negative effects on drug abuse is really easy to explain. A positive role model is a role model that would tell you that drugs are bad, and not only tell you that but ALSO explain WHY they are bad for you like the negative effects of drugs on the body, they would also help in telling you what to say to someone that offers you drugs such as saying NO or simply walking away. Whereas a negative role model would ENCOURAGE you to do drugs and might tell you that it's "cool" to do the drug because everyone "does it", they would also tell you such things as it will make you feel better and that it will be the greatest feeling that you've ever had. Positive role models will encourage you NOT to do drugs and negative role models will encourage you to DO drugs. 

hope this helps!! :)
