Peer Pressure

It can happen at any time and any place. It can happen usually when there is a big gang of friends, and you're all doing something. Say your all sat on a park bench next to a main road, and all of the other kids say i know lets run across the road and back - for fun! Then you say "No! That's far too dangerous" - which it is. They all make you feel as thought you have to do...

Well we girls love attention. We love to be loved and treated like a princesses, no matter how shy you are. We don't really feel threatened by other girls beauty, perhaps we are more then a little envious. We could feel a bit intimidated if the beautiful girl is showing a fancy towards the men we are dating.

First thing is to MAKE school officials aware of the problem. For instance, the school counselor, principle, any teachers. Also, parents needs to have the issue made known to them. Talk to anyone that will listen. Always involve a trusted adult. Discuss issues with a close friend. Make someone listen. If the issue is being made aware to several trusted individuals, the more likely the problem is to be taken seriously, rather than a record of just 1 (one) account of the...

There have been a number of studies about conformity and peer pressure. Often, the people trying to pressure you have their own doubts about the action they want you to take with them, and they are going to use "but everyone was doing it" as their excuse later on. Similarly, it is also human nature for many people to care more about the approval of the group than about doing the right thing. This is called "groupthink"-- when fitting in with...

Possitive peer pressure to me, means that you are "hanging out" with people that you can just be yourself with. People that you don't have to be "fake" around are the people you should "hang out" with. If you really want to be with those people then you will look for them, and if they are good for you they will be a positive peer. (: ...

It first helps to anticipate the problem if you do it will help you to either avoid it or confront it. Think about how you'll feel later if you go along with the crowd. If you've already made up your mind not to do something than be firm and show your conviction. Stand up for what you believe in! There's nothing wrong with that! Ignore them. If they confront you, walk away. If they attack, fight back. If even the teachers are...

They are cool but when you get to age 13 not so much. A lunch box is not necessarily a matter of being cool as it is containing a lunch. In some cases, people prefer to bring their own food to school and other places. A lunch box is a great way to do that without wasting bags. If a 12 year old is concerned about looking uncool with a lunch box perhaps they simply need a new lunch box or...

Do not buy patterned bathing trunks as this emphasizes the person looking heavier than they really are. Safely work on a...

According to traditional Psych theory, a strong, moral male example and a loving mother can help a son want to be like his father. If the son loves his mother he will want to be like his father so that the mother and/or someone similar to his mother will love him back. A weak, emasculated father or no father at all fails to provide a son with a good roll model, and it may lead to gender ambivalence. ...
