The most effective strategy for using refusal skills in this situation would be C: Stick to your decision to stay safe by staying home alone. This choice demonstrates a commitment to your own values and safety, and it sets a clear boundary with your friends. It’s important to prioritize your well-being and to not engage in activities that could put you at risk. The other options either compromise your safety or encourage risky behaviors.
