kathy became addicted to alcohol in her teen years, which factors influenced her drinking? check all that apply

There is a lot of evidence to suggest that a family addiction history is an indicator of the likelihood of addiction.  If Kathy's family had an addition history, she should have not experimented with any form of substance use.

Explanation:

Some people drink because they like the way alcohol makes them feel.  If they drink in moderation or occasionally, there may be almost no addiction potential.  However, in Kathy's situation, her family history showed that individuals in her family who start drinking, more often than not, lose control and become addicted.  

Peer pressure can be a real problem that leads to substance abuse. It is possible that Kathy felt pressured to drink and did not have an adequate support system or adult monitoring at hand,

If Kathy's parents did not see underage drinking as an issue, they were setting Kathy up for big problems.  Teens who have parents who establish and enforce behavioral guidelines and reinforce legal mandates are much more likely to avoid substance abuse.

Children who are able to access alcohol and other addictive substances are more likely to experiment, and in some cases, become addicted.  It was irresponsible for Kathy's parents allow Kathy access to alcohol.

Advertising portrays the use of alcohol to be fun, exciting and socially inclusive.  It is possible that these messages contributed to Kathy's decision to start drinking.  

Given her family history, the accessibility of alcohol, peer pressure and lack of good parenting, Kathy was doomed to addiction from a very early age. hope this helps you or A,B,D,E hope this helps you :)
