I did some research on the internet about how different types of drugs can affect people and I found that the reason why many street children would take drugs is because they like how it affects their brain and how it changes the way they feel.
According to the sites I read, many drugs, from heroin and ecstasy, produce temporary changes in the brain that cause people to feel and act different. Some drugs can give people the feeling of pleasure while other types can give people a rush of adrenaline.
Street Children are young and can be easily influenced by others. They can be easily brainwashed into taking drugs. Once they take drugs they become addicted and continue to take them. Another reason could be because they are extremely depressed or traumatized and they resort to drugs to try and make them feel better.
These are the websites i looked at :
