Peer Pressure?


Craiglowery

Recommended Posts

Peer pressure, for me, is somewhat a myth. As if to say, it can't force anything upon you. If you 'succumb' to it, in my opinion, you've always had a temptation to do so.

 

 

 

So basically, if you have zero intent on ever doing so, you've got no problem. He can say anything he wants to you, but it won't matter. Sticks and stones and all that bollocks.

 

 

 

I believe that to about 85%. The thing is, if a person being pressured gets the feeling like (at least around them) everyone is doing it, than i could see it getting incredibly hard. People want to fit in.

 

 

 

On the other hand, I think everyone can find at least that one kid who's not doing it. I never had a problem with it since I could always find those people. My schools never had a drug problem and we had plenty of non-users.

Be assertive and say no. Don't rat him out.

 

 

 

What I find weird is that he's trying to force it on you. If a friend turns down an offer, that just means more for me!

Yup, when I was 9 I think...

 

Friends were smoking, and they wanted that I tried it aswell.

 

I never did it, never going too either. I was smart enough to stay away from it (a few days later they were cought anyways).

 

 

 

If you get busted, even if it's your first time, your parents will be very sad.

 

Talk about it with your parents, they are the smartest ones anyways. (Most of the times)

 

 

 

And even if it's alcohol, what isn't that bad: There is a time and place for anything. And after school isn't the place, and when you're young it certainly isn't the time!

 

 

 

You have a whole life ahaid of you, don't ruin it already ::'

If you live in canada I have different advice. I'm trying to rember if the youth criminal act in national or provincial. If its national than this applies to all provinces, if not than Nova Scotia or provinces with simalar legislation. Basicly here, the possesion charge would just be a fine, maby some time in juvie depending on what he has and how much. Black mail, im not sure but chances are he would be off the hook beofore he would be out of oyur life for good.

 

 

 

Basicly our system operates on making people applogise to the people theve harmed, in otherword nothing. Just find out what the penalty is for possesion of illegal substance and black mail is before you go to cops.

 

 

 

As for the drugs, ask him why he keeps trying to give you drugs for free (proboly to get you hooked so you will buy from him). His answer should be interesting at the least, hell stop offering if your lucky (liek when someone offers you a cigarete and you say no thanks. There secretly relived you said no cause thats there money. There also not likely to ask again). Always refuse the drugs though, especily since you don't know him and some people will do things like soke a joint in windex to increse the weight (cant be good for you).

If he keeps threatening you than I would try and talk to someone about it. Not about the drugs really but just about the fact that he's threatening you, and these days you really have to take it seriously.

Smoking 9 year olds? Wtf?

 

 

 

Anyways, turn him in. He may have said he'd stab you if you told about his drugs, but did he say he would stab you if you told about him saying he would stab you? I think not. :wink:

I've had people ask me plenty of times but whenever i said no they were cool, alot of my friends do things like this but they are all very nice and won't pressure you if you don't want to do it. I've been to parties with them were there was alot of drugs and alcohol present, now I have no problem with alcohol, I'll drink, but I wont do anything else and they respect me for it.

 

 

 

Now, the thought of being threatened into it, I don't really know how to handle that since I've never been in the situation. Just tell the police I guess lol, that way they can arrest him before he can stab you :P

:lol: When I was in high school I used to buy a cheap pack of 50's smokes for about $11.50 and sell them $1 each to my friends and $2 each to every other person who was stupid enough to make me a profit.

 

 

 

That's how I used to make my pocket money :XD: :-#

The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.

Well most of my friends smoke weed all the time and ask me if I want to do some two but I say no since I know its not good for you and I am a very active and athletic person so that wouldn't be very good either. Real friends wont force you to do anything you don't want to.

 

 

 

Also, I think that no drugs are worth it and are a huge waste of money and time.

Rat him out, and also say that he has threatened you. If you can, give names of gang members. You are only at risk if you rat him out and not tell anybody. Drugs in society needs to be eradicated.

i gotta give you my 2 cents of advice but anyway first just say no and if you school has any administrators go tell them or even a cop try to make a scene about it and he will change his mind real fast like when he asks you say NO real loud or something like HECK NO I DONT WANT YOUR DRUGS GET AWAY FROM ME!!! and theres a slight chance hes gonna stab you cause most people who say stuff like that are just trying to cover up for there insecurity and they are really yellow bellied losers.

I've never been pressured into anything, sure I've tried it all, but not until I'm ready. I had been offered smokes and dak by alot of my mates, and I'd just say no, and they'd respect that. Just depends what sort of mates you have.

 

 

 

Now I smoke ciggies and the odd roach, and alot of my mates don't, I'll offer it to them, just because I am generous, haha, but if they say no, I leave it at that.
