Synopsis "Resisting Peer Pressure for Teens: Advice on Drugs, School, Sex, and Fitting in (in English)"
In Resisting Peer Pressure for Teens, young writers show that it's possible to stand up to the pressure they may feel from friends and some family members to be "cool." Inspire teen and preteen readers to take responsibility for and make wiser decisions about their lives with the essays in this book--each written by a teenager. Within these pages, Jamel A. Salter, Fan Yi Mok, and Charlene George, and many others, describe how and why they chose to keep it real and fight back against the pressure they felt from friends to use drugs and alcohol; have sex too early; lie, cheat, and steal; and skip or act out in school. Essays include: My Secret LoveLosing My Friends to WeedWhy Do So Many Teens Cheat?Can't Afford to FollowHiding My Talent No MoreWhy I Speak My MindSex Doesn't Make You a ManMy So-Called FriendsMaking Me DancePeer Pressure Ended Our RelationshipI Want to Be Pretty and PopularThe Trouble with Being a VirginThinking for Myselfand more! Through these essays, teen readers will pick up new ways to say no and advice that will help them stay true to themselves, while parents, teachers, and caregivers will be provided a much-needed glimpse into how the world looks to our younger generations.
