Umm I have this friend and she is making a lot of bad decisions like she wants to get a bunch of tattoos and get her belly button pierced and such oh and drink and I keep trying to urge her from doing this stuff but she wants to and can you tell me how to try and encourage her not to make these choices?

You could have a nice talk with her , and ask if somethings wrong or bothering her thats making her want to do this. If she gets offended just let her know how concerned or worried you are, and let her know once she makes these choices there's no turning back, whats done is done. Tell her you are her friend and only care of her health, and you don't want her to get hurt. If she is wise she will listen to you. Well good luck!!

You can ask her what her plans are for the future and if/how the tattoos and piercings will go with those plans. You could also point out that while the tattoos may look nice when you are younger, one day your skin will not be the same as it is now and the tattoos could start to look like Salvador Dali paintings. The piercings can be taken out later for the most part.

I know it's hard and i actually went through this with a couple of my friends. The only thing you can do is let her know where you stand and be there when she needs you. Techically piercings and tatoos arent usually harmful and the drinking will slow down when she realizes that it's nothing special. Sorry I couldnt tell you something more helpful.
