The first tip that you can do to is that you have to explain to you growing children about a simple peer pressure. It is not simply you are telling them what is peer pressure but you just only let them know about the things related to friendship as one of your friends would be telling you something cools like it is good for them like smoking and lie to parents. These values are simply you already old in daily. You can tell to your children in their friendship they should not lecture them but just sharing the opinions and avoid peer pressure to others. 

The second tip that you can do to make your children are able to choose their own best friends is role play the words. It is like teach them to be resistant to a peer pressure. It is really important to tell to your children creative ways to avoid bad peer pressure. You make a similar scenario when your children are offered drugs, tobacco or even alcohol. It is better for you to let children to practice the whole scenario with you.

The third tip is the whole summary of how to play the scenario to be resistant to bad peer pressure. The first is to ask a question. So, when your children are offered such bad things like tobacco, drugs, alcohol, or something that is not similar for them, then get used to make them to always question like “what is it”?, where did you get it?”, “who else is invited?” and many others. By questioning then children get to know the information. 

Then, say no like when it is found that those things are not good not normal then tell to your children to directly say no not by discussing r arguing but just mean it for no. Then, after that tell them to give reasons like “coach says drugs will hurt my game” and so on. This reason will work well for sure. If it is at the other said to say no to the friends who offered the drugs or smoke then, you can tell to your children that they can reject the offers by suggesting other thing to do. Doing emphasizing to their friends that they are not rejecting but it is a harmful behaviors.

Also, if the children all have tried those methods or techniques above do not work then, they can even leave those bad friends alone. Tell them that they can just go walk to home or even when they are at school they can just directly join the other group of friends. Or just run away.
