as a seventh grader, manaia petaia was involved with a gang called the s.o.s.but today, he's teaching children to resist the temptation... of gang membership. what made the difference for him ? a very determined volleyball coach. a lot of the kids that i hung out with... were involved in gangs. and i truly believe that if mr. muenzer didn't take the time... to work with not only myself but the rest of my family and friends, we would probably be involved in gangs... or, you know, we'd probably be in jail, you know. or even dead. he's definitely a positive role model. who in this classroom knows somebody who's been shot before ? a lot of you. i didn't give up on him. i just kept saying, "come on i need you on this team." and i made it hard for him to say "no." if you join a gang are you the only one who gets hurt ? no. yeah. who else ? the other ones. bystanders. okay, the bystanders we talked about. now i'm in the position where i hope i'm making the same difference. okay. now. what are some of the ways we can say "no" to negative peer pressure ? i don't do that
