And lately, i've discovered that one of the best answers for relationship problems is communication. talk. explain. share. it does wonders.

advice

ok i'm in 8th grade.. and i dont smoke,drink or do any drugs whatsoever. so me and my friends are talking about when people in my school start drinking which is 8th and up. they said that they wouldnt mind starting now or in 9th.

anyway i was with one of my friends and she said she would do it and everyone else does. she says its not wrong and its not right, just another form of partying. personally i dont feel like i would drink at a young age, and i dont want to give in to peer pressure. i feel pressured to start soon,what should i do?? help is appreciated.

Don't let in to the pressure. I'm a senior and I still don't drink. My friends do and they've tried pressuring me into doing it before but they step back when i refuse. Just tell them you dont want to do it and if they're really your friends they'll understand and back off. If you're with them and they try forcing you to drink, tell them you don't like it when they try to pressure and then leave. It's not that fun and hangovers SUCK. not drinking before high school isnt a crime and is actually something admirable. So many young people are falling into peer pressure and drinking/doing drugs; the ones who dont are the ones who are smart. so my advice is stay above the influence and dont give in to your friends. It might seem 'not fun' or 'antisocial' but trust me, its worth waiting till you're older to get drunk.
