What is peer pressure Preventive meaurses
Peer pressure are actions influenced because you want to be accepted by your peers. A peer can be anyone you respect, or someone who you think is an equal in age or ability. A peer could be a friend, someone in your community or even someone on TV who you see and question if you should be more like them. You might try to live up to either the individual’s or group’s expectations, or follow a particular fashion or trend. Almost everyone is affected by peer pressure at some point.
