Dear friend,
What do you think I should do? All my friend smoke, they think it’s really cool, but I don’t. I’m fed up with them telling me to try. I really don’t want to. They call me names and say I’m frightened of getting into trouble, but it’s not true. I just don’t want to.

Dear friend,
Can you help me? I need more pocket money so I can buy some new computer games. All my friends have Saturday jobs, but my mum won’t let me get one. She says I’ll be too tired to do my school work. What can I do, I’m so depressed about it?
Maisie (age 14)
Dear friend,
I’m in Year 9 and I have to choose the subjects for next year. My parents and my teachers want me to continue History because I’ve got good marks, but I really hate history and the teacher is so boring. I want to continue French and German because I want to travel when I leave school. But my marks aren’t very good. No one listens to me, I get so angry. What should I do?
