Choosing friends over the next few years might be some of the most important decisions you make.
Middle school and high school years are full of pressures from friends.
Mom has told you many stories how in the end your friends may not be by your side. They may just leave you in the ditch...literally (remember the story).
There may not be any stronger pressure than that of your friends trying to get you to participate with them in wrong actions (drinking, drugs, sex).
Resisting these pressures that you know are wrong makes you into a man of honor and integrity. Giving into their persuasions and going along makes you a fool and coward for not standing up for what you believe.
Stay strong and make sure your friends lead you down the right path and if not you do not need them as friends.
Love you,
Mom
