Debates of all sorts discussion

Is peer pressure one of the main sources of teen trouble?

Unfortunately, I think it is. For example, I've seen a bunch of people go to parties not intending to drink but gradually getting taunted into it :/

Yes. Peer pressure is just there. Its a terrible thing, and I wouldn't like doing it or being told to do it.

Peer pressure is bad. For sure. People can cause deaths or depressions because of it. Its horeible and no one really can get rid of it, but I'm sure people wish they could.

Some don't. Its a well-known thing, but its just not what we think to stop everyday.

I ment the victim.

I know.

Hopefully you did.

Peer pressure isn't always bad. It's usually bad, in my mind, but sometimes it can be good. For example, my peers encourage and pressure me to do my best. In a math class, we'll work on a mini competition. My friend have pressured me (peer pressure) into getting outside more, spending more time with them, etc. That's helped me.

?

Yeah, I think i always forget about the pros of peer pressure.

My mind is a mess Lololololol

Peer pressure just seems like an ugly phrase.

YEah, but giving in to negative peer pressure really just hurts yourself.

Not sure what you mean...

That's happened to me to, Aleph, but I've basically just decided on moral standards and comfort zones I will not venture out of for anyone's sake but my own. A lot of people don't have that, it's sad....

Yeah, the closer the person is to you, the harder it is...but you respect yourself more for it afterwards if you don't give in :/

Haha, yayy xD But good ^-^ I'm getting better at it, but mostly through making mistakes '-_-
