My friends want to drink but i dont want them to What do i do...?

Answer 1

I would tell them that there were other ways of socializing, and explain to them that the effects of alcohol can be addictive, dangerous and humiliating to the drinker and demonstrate to them that you can have fun without drinking. You can even 'illustrate' these notions with relevant examples as well.
Hope this helps...

Answer 2

Dude, don't let peer pressure pressure you. Tell them how bad it is for you, really! There are many bad effects from drinking and it's not gonna help them at all. Plus, I'm guessing you're still a kid, maybe in high school... YOU ARE WAY TOO YOUNG TO DRINK! It's not a good way to start their lives. If they pressure you, don't hang out with them, because they'll probably end up working at Mc Donald's, but if you work hard enough, you could probably be a physician at a very good hospital. Don't ruin your future just to hang out with people who you think are your friends.

Answer 3

hey!
alright, i know where you're coming from. i don't drink, but a lot of my friends do. there really isn't much you can do. you can tell them that you don't want them to drink, like i did, but that doesn't mean that they won't. my friends still drink, but less now that i told them. plus it also depends on the age. my friends are not exactly at the age yet, mind you, they're not 13. if your friends are really young then you should talk to them about it, because some think that you have to drink to have fun, when you don't. so basically, there isn't much you can do bud. you can definitely talk to them about it, and see where that takes you, but you can't expect them to stop completely or even right away.

hope that helped. :]

Answer 4

Know that you can't control them. It is their choice, not yours.
You can tell them that you are uncomfortable with them drinking and that you worry about them. Tell them about the risks. Don't sound like a geek or anything though. haha.

It's good that you don't want to drink and that you're looking out for your friends. Drinking usually results in bad choices which lots of times results in death.

Good luck.

Answer 5

if you are under 21 then none of you should be drinking. if you are 21 or older then let them drink just be the designated driver and do not allow them to drive if they have been drinking. the expression is friends don't let friends drive drunk but it should be friends don't let anyone that has been drinking drive.

never allow someone to force you to do anything you don't want to do and please don't drink just to be included.

Answer 6

banch out. if you dont drink its not wise to be around folks that do. find peopel like you who know how to have fun without boozing. Im a 23 yr old female and I am not a drinker, so I avoid scenes where alcohol is in excess. It can be done, besides, kool-aid taste way better :)
