Can i disable the power button on my MacBook Pro 2012 13''? My friends keep pressing it while I'm working and it is extremely annoying.

So i have some really annoying friends who like to turn off the laptop when i am working and it's not funny, Does anyone have a solution as to how i can temporarily disable the button when they are around and then just flip it back to normal use?

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion
