Peer Pressure
PSA
Peer Pressure is devastating
- Peer Pressure: influence from members of one's peer group.
- Peer pressure is an extremely harmful and common occurrence in today's youth. Young teens are influenced by their "friends" into doing things they would never even think about doing otherwise. Without this we would have a much better society with less crime and ultimately a better nation and a better world to live in. Only you can resist peer pressure.
Quote from Self-Reliance
- "Insist on yourself; never imitate."
- This quote is saying to be yourself and to lead down your own path, to never try to be something you're not and stick to your own morals.
