I dont know what laws you follow, but here in the USA, as taken from a legit source below,
-----------
"Anabolic steroids became illegal to use without a prescription, possess or sell as a result of the Anabolic Steroid Control Act (ASCA) in 1990. However, when Congress passed the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act four years later, the law created a loophole in the ASCA allowing precursors of scheduled anabolic steroids to be sold as dietary supplements. Not only does this pose a health threat, but it also has caused drug-testing confusion among athletes.

I'm not saying its good for kids to take. I tire of people calling these kids idiots because they ask questions regarding 'roids.
either respond with an answer or not, these posts and real world people in gyms who call kids IDIOTS for asking questions are only making matters worse.
Answer the kid, but don't cut the kid up for asking.
If you look at history, people have always tried to get that advantage. And not until recently has it become illegal.
----------
"The first recorded death from the use of doping in sport was in 1886 when a cyclist died from an overdose of trimethyl. In 1904 Olympics marathon runner Thomas Hicks was using a mixture of brandy and strychnine and nearly died. Heroin, cocaine, and caffeine were used widely used until heroin and cocaine became available only on prescription. During the 1930's it was Amphetamines that replaced strychnine. In the 1950s the Soviet Olympic team used male hormones to increase strength and power. The American's developed steroids as a response."

Hell, people still smoke all the time and everybody knows it'll kill you.
So telling somebody they are an idiot for asking about roids obviously is not working. Find another way to tell them not to do it because your way is not working. As in your example, we still have drug problems with kids. So telling the kid, your an idiot for doing it DOES NOT STOP THE PROBLEM. Maybe we should find another solution instead of telling kids they are idiots.
