Answer:

Risky behavior, in general, is any behavior that potentially exposes people to some kind of harm, which will prevent them from reaching their potential. Some of the risk behaviors may be considered normal because they are part of growing up, but they must be controlled. Teenagers at their age want to explore and participate in some risky behaviors, to satisfy curiosity, prove themselves, but also to find some answers to life's questions, so they have to be controlled. This is especially important if one takes into account that some of the risky behaviors are the use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs, sexual behavior that can lead to unwanted pregnancy and transmission of the disease, unhealthy dietic behavior and inadequate physical activity that can cause various diseases and disorders in metabolism . All of this needs to be explored so that everyone has knowledge of the harmful consequences of risky behaviors but with parenting, expert help and advice.
