8. What is Peer Pressure?
Peer pressure is being influenced by people in
one’s peer group. This influence can produce positive
or negative behavior in the one being affected.
It often encourages children to become better
people with better characters when it is positive.
It corrupts students when negative, so they
develop a more unwise and foolish character.
Negative group pressure will sometimes make
students pay dearly for their poor choices during
their school years.
