The article "Should we Accept Steroids use in Sports?", Jeffery Katz talks about the whole use of steroids in sports, whether we should allow it or not. The article talks about how some people against the use of steroids think that it is causing younger kids to use steroids to be just like idols in sports. The use of steroids among teenagers has increased over the time all of the steroids trials have been happening. But I do not believe that the fact that sport athletes are using steroids to get a "unfair advantage" is the main cause for the increase in steroids among teenagers.
I believe that teenagers are using steroids more because they think that it will actually help them in the long run without any side effects, which anyone that truly works out and knows what they are talking about will tell you that is not true at all. Even I know for a teenager to be using steroids is not a smart idea at all because the human body is still developing during the teenage years. Steroids basically causes your body to over produce testosterone which cn have some very harmful effects on the human body at a very young age.
