You're in a wonderful, but TEENY minority. Most kids want nothing to do with "facts". And good peer pressure education is far from "don't listen to your friends". For my part, I would toss the "facts" in with it, just to fully round out the education, and also in case the child is one of those few who are receptive to the numbers that show the damage.
