One solution to the problem of peer pressure is to pay attention to your feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away, and resist doing something you know that is wrong.
A second solution is to have at least one other peer, or friend, who is willing to say "no". too. This makes it much easier to face peer pressure. It's great to have friends with values similar to yours who will back you up when you don't want to do something. If you choose friends who don't take drugs, cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won't do these things either, even if other kids do. Try to help a friend who is having trouble resisiting peer pressure. It can be powerful for one kid to join another by simple saying, "I'm with you - let's go".
