I'm very curious about it, because on television I see the teenagers offer others cigarettes and drugs. Does this happen to you? Or has it?
And how did you respond?

Not a day goes by where I don't see cigarette butts or smell that awful stench of marijuana. I never do drugs but most people I know in real life from school do.

Peer pressure is evil,i'd rather be hated by everyone and everything than the opposite.

And no i didn't do drugs.

Someone offered me a cigarette once I think, but that's it.
I never smoked or did drugs though.

Nope! :) Although there was this one time when I was eight and this mean six-year-old girl in my neighborhood was smoking with a friend and wanted me to join in. Needless to say, I ran home and told my mom immediately about what she was doing. And believe it or not, that girl's mom had offered her the cigarrettes! 8O

That's shocking!! (especially considering that the kids probably had to light it themselves)

I've never been "pressured" to do so.
But, I get offered to do so almost every day.
I decline most of it because, cigarettes are disgusting, and pot bores me.
All though, I do I have to admit, Oxy is amazing, it really makes me more social, and happy.
