24. • You’re at a party and one of your friends
has clearly drunk too much alcohol- you’ve
helped them to the toilet, they have been
sick and are now passed out on the floor-they
are meant to be staying at your house
after the party but you don’t want your
parents to find out there was alcohol at the
party, so you don’t want to bring your
friend home in such a state- what can you
do?
25. • You’re offered a cigarette at a party-and
some of your group of friends are
smoking too, but you don’t want to
and you’re worried that your parents
will smell the smoke on your breath
and clothes. How do you say ‘no’ to
your friends?
26. • You have heard that some of your
friends have been experimenting with
marijuana. You are concerned, not
just for their health but you are also
aware there is drug-testing at ISM.
You want to help but you are not sure
who to turn to? What can you do?
