60 percent of Spanish adolescents state they do not take drugs and rarely drink alcohol

Despite the cliches surrounding the habits of adolescents, the results of a study by the University of Seville show that most young people do not fit the risk profile of taking substances. Some 60 percent of Spaniards aged 13 to 18 say they do not take drugs and rarely drink alcohol -- only in moderation -- and at the same time, less than 10 percent admit to have taken some form of illegal drug.
