Peer Pressure

Peer Pressure is when "friends" persuade you to doing something that you don't want to do. Peer pressure can be broken down into two sides, good and bad. Bad peer pressure is being coerced into doing something that you didn't want to do. Friends can have a tremendous effect on a person's decision. Good peer pressure, on the other hand, is being pushed into something that you didn't have the courage to do or it didn't cross your mind to do. Knowing who to listen to and who to avoid is the biggest step in fighting unwanted, negative peer pressure. Remember, it's your life and your responsibility for determining what you make of it. If you don't want to do it, just say NO!!
