people of all ages suffer from the weakness of peer pressure, the main causes are usually found in reasons such as being in-confident, uncool and unsure of themselves. in cases like this a person would generally feel the need ( however unnecessary ) to prove otherwise, even if this means doing something they dont even want to do. Parents also play their part, a child tends to think that the way their friends act is much cooler or more impressive, e.t.c when their parents frequently compare them to these friends. other reasons may be if the atmosphere of their upbringing is strict, they feel the want to break free of these rules and however much they dont want to, they'll do anything to prove their parents that they dont control their lives. effects of this are losing ones own identity and individualism, loss of friends who see the change in one, nervous break downs and in some cases suicide, all depending on the severity of the pressure.
Peer pressure is the influence of a peer group that exerts (mostly) negative habits unto an individual. Peer influence is an element of peer pressure. Without the pressure, you wouldn't have the influence.
Peer pressure can lead to conflict when individuals feel pressured to conform to the expectations or behaviors of their peers, even if it goes against their own beliefs or values.
