Question

Name two tips given in the passage for dealing with peer pressure.

Answer 1

Answer:

Pay attention

Talk to the person who is pressuring, let him or her know how it makes you feel and tell the person stop.

Have a secret code to communicate with parents.

Give an excuse.

Have friends with similar values and beliefs.

Answer 2

Answer:

Find real friends who accept the real you. Knowing whom to listen

to and whom to avoid is the key to steering clear of negative peer

pressure.

 Know what to say. “Just say doing that stuff really isn’t your thing,”

says Elli L., 15, of North Dakota. “You can also blame your parents—it

works wonders.”

 Be confident. Stick up for yourself. People will respect you for it.

 Think about it. Keep in mind that just one destructive decision can

change your whole life, says Nicole S., 16, also of North Dakota.

Think: How might this one moment affect how you see yourself?
