Question

Imagine a close friend is planning to go out and celebrate this weekend. You know your friend intends to drink and may experiment with drugs. You are not only concerned for her wellbeing but also worried that she might get behind the wheel and drive. Using the information you learned in module 8, write a paragraph persuading your friend to make safe choices. List at least three dangers she may face and two alternatives for her to safely and legally enjoy the celebration.

Answer 1

What I would tell my friend is that drugs are dangerous and he should avoid and try to abstain from using any. Dangers he could face are death, nausea, or waking up when not knowing how he got there. An alternative would be for her to not drink alcohol and not do drugs, this would ensure a safe and fun time in comparison to doing both!

Answer 2

Inform your friend about the dangers the drug may cause especially when she is the one driving. One, she may be killed while driving because she would not know where she is going due to the effects of drugs and alcohol. Two, she may be killed while she is using drugs by using it excessively. Three, she may be put into jail if she is fund by the officers using drug. So instead, one, drink moderately and two, do not take drugs.
