Is It Really That Hard To Sy No?

Is it really that hard to say no to all of these things? Yeah, crack, cocaine, smoking, drinking, and other drugs. To me it's not that hard to say no to bad choices. Yeah that's nice if your friends are doing it, but you are in control of yourself. They have no control over you. If they want to run their life with all this bad things running throughout their system, by all means, let them, but if they choose that, that's their own choice, it's a poor choice, but it's their choice, and you choice is whether you want to follow them or not. Your choice is what matters, not theirs. And if they start calling you names, just say something like, "You can do what you want, I love my life enough to actually be successful when I grow + I love me!" Don't be afraid to defend yourself when you are in a situation where someone is calling you names...
         So the main topic that's on my mind right now is why it is so hard to say no to things you don't approve of?
       
Drugs are dangerous to the people who use them, but people who use drugs don't only hurt themselves. The people around those who do drugs can be hurt in many different ways too. Saying "NO" to drugs is smart and helps to keep yourself and others safe.

              
There are all types of drugs and alcohol, but the main thing they have in common is that those who use them often get hooked on them and then it is very hard to stop, even when you really want to. That is what we call addiction, you may have heard of someone being addicted to something. You may have also heard of other familiar terms such as substance abuse, drug or alcohol abuse and drug addiction. Just remember; you are in control of your own actions, use your choices wisely...
