We are sometimes influenced by our friends. Sometimes they are a bad influence on us and sometimes they are not. If you think they are cajoling into doing bad things and so you should say no, you must do it. You should say no bravely and assertively without any hesitation. Friends may try to influence you in various ways. Especially, it is more important for you to overcome the bad influence exerted by bad friends.

Some examples are …

                       “Can’t you talk your family into it?”

                       “Aren’t we good friends?”

                      “Nothing to worry! I will take care of everythng”

                      “You are now a grown up”

                      “Everybody does it”

                      “I can do it; why can’t you?”

                      “Aren’t you a man?”                                 

When you face such kinds of persuasion, if you think you should say no, you must. Only then you can be free from troubles.
