The consequences of risk-taking behaviour
You may regret your actions
Regret can stay with you for many years if your behaviour has led to long-term difficulties.
Others may think you are foolish
You may find yourself isolated if your behaviour makes people think badly of you.
Your relationships may suffer
People will not trust you if they associate you with risky or antisocial behaviour. Your family will worry and your friends may distance themselves from you.
You or others may be injured
Taking physical risks may lead to injuries or death for you and the people around you.
You may face criminal charges
Dangerous or illegal behaviour may lead to your arrest. This will cause problems at school and work, and may lead to curfews, fines, probation, or prison.
