What is peer pressure?
Peer pressure is when your peers influence you or try and get you to do something bad. Peer pressure can be really bad and can cause stress. Peer pressure is BAD influence from a group of peers.
Your choices
You can make a good choice or you can make a bad choice. Ex. If your peers are trying to get you to steal from a store. A good choice you can make is NOT stealing the item. The bad choice you can make is stealing the item witch CAN lead to being arrested. But if you want to make the good choice then you don't steal and you don't get arrested.
What can you do?
You can do a couple of things to stop peer pressure. You can tell a teacher or parent, You can walk away and ignore the peer pressure or you can tell the people "no". If you see someone that has peer pressure then you can go and help them out of it. If you see someone getting peer pressure then you can tell a teacher as well. If the people are trying to get you to do something that you don't want to do then tell the people that your parents wont let you.
