My Older friends

I've got some older friends (I"m 13, they are 14/15) who have invited me to a party on Saturday night at  someone's house. I'm pretty sure everyone there will be drinking. I've never had alcohol before. I'm going to tell my parents that I'm staying the night at my friend's. I feel quite nervous, cos I know it's bad. What should I do?

I think you should go to the party and see what happens if you don't know about drinking maybe you should try a bit but if you do don't get to carried away. Make sure they don't trick you into any other things like taking drugs.

On Friday week 1 we went to life ed. It was our first session since last year. Michael was the man who was talking to us about how to get out of using drugs, and why they are bad and good. He talked to us about if you were at a beach party and some guy pulled out a bag of drugs and they passed it round. Each person would take one when it gets to you what would you do? He also talked to us about Reach Wits.

I found out my two friends smoke. I'm only 13. I don't know what to do. I am really confused. Please help. 

Give advice?
I think you guys should talk to your parents so they know what your doing. Make sure you hang out with the right people that won't get you into this. What I would do is I would see a guidance councilor, because they will be able to help you, and find out why you are doing all this stuff.  Smoking can cause lung cancer but can also cause lots of other cancers and illnesses. Smoking causes over 100,000 deaths in the UK each year and contributes to many more. Of these deaths, about 42,800 are from smoking related cancers, 30,600 from cardiovascular disease and 29,100 die slowly from emphysema and other chronic lung diseases. 

   

James Webster's death

"He was full of life" nitty, funny, and a neat kid, said James Uncle Donald. James Webster age of 16 went to their local RSA, for a 18th birthday party, and had a bottle vodka and never woke up. The family of a King's College student who died after a night out drinking are hoping his death will put something out there showing the dangers of teenage drinking. He got the bottle out of his Grandma's cupboard and also told his dad that he was going to his friends house to stay the night but lied and went to the RSA. He drank the bottle end his car.
