Peer Pressure

The teenage years are the years where people are influenced the most. If it is peer pressure, you need them to know right from wrong. Also, the latter teenage years really decides a person's future in most cases, regarding education

There are ways to avoid peer pressure. You can surround yourself with people who are like minded, or just have the will to not do anything you know is wrong and would not normally do. Don't put yourself in positions where you easily swayed.

People who are visual insecure. let face it every one is insecure about somethings but if you appear that you are insecure about your self and a not confident they will attack you into doing what they want.. because they know you want to be excepted.. so the trick is act confident and be your self and if some one criticizing you act like it didn't effect you one bit because it should never matter what they say anyway. :)

Answer2: Peer pressure is in high school and all schools and age groups. Adults want to be accepted by their peers too. No one-young or old-savors the bitter taste of rejection. Those who lack confidence in themselves or who may feel ashamed for some reason or they have low self worth and low self esteem are vulnerable. Sometimes people don't think they are good about doing certain things like others and it makes them feel sad and unworthy and useless. When we lack confidence, feeling unsure of ourselves, peer pressure can be very hard to resist. Children especially need commendation and being told good job. Every child has the ability to do something that we can commend them for whether strong or weak and can do something good in life no matter how small the job. The key is not to cave in to peer pressure just because others are negative and could care less about your feelings.

When you cave in to peer pressure, you become like a mindless robot because you allow other people to control you. Why let them have that kind of power?-Romans 6:16. Don't let the world around you squeeze you into its own mold." (Romans 12:2, The New Testament in Modern English)

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. (:

• Many people are afraid of being alone their whole life and some people even though afraid embrace being alone as far as not having a spouse or a mate. You may well think you will be alone the rest of your life but fate may have others ideas for you and at any age you can often meet someone you truly love.

be straight forward about it. just tell the girl that you like her. don't just be like "o i like you" but be casual about it. play the question game and have one of the questions be "who do you like?" and if your lucky the girl will copy your questions and ask you the same thing. that's when you tell her. if she likes you back then say that you would like to go out with her. if she says yes then that's awesome for you. if she says no then aww that suckss.

some times they are checking u out others they may be talking about u and if they are talking about u, u should feel proud cuz that means u are worth talking about.

• When you are trapped in a clique you need to take time away from it to think straight and to realize why you feel this way. Cliques can be toxic depending on the people in the clique. Because you feel trapped this means you are tired of playing the game the others do or you may well be maturing at a faster rate than they are. Remember, you have the power of your own destiny so do not be afraid to walk away from a toxic clique and be on your own again because you are going through a learning curve in life which is good and now you know what you do not want and you will be more able to choose future friends more carefully.

The victims are most likely: People who cannot think for themselves or have very little sense for consequences.

• Yes it is just fine if you are 18 and your boyfriend is 20 as you are no longer a minor.

Legally no, but it depends on the type of humiliation. There is sexual humiliation that could qualify as torture, but just public humiliation is not

All the other boys are watching also. It's only natural. At 13 any naked body is worth looking at and other boys are a lot more accessible. Don't worry about it, looking is harmless, it's the touching that gets you in trouble. You may be Gay and if so, that's the way you are supposed to be. It's no big deal and the sooner you figure it out, the easier it is. All boys look at and have some experience with another boy, it's just part of growing up.

• Teens go through many hormonal changes and they can become moody; slightly depressed and sometimes down right cranky. When you feel like this try to stay clear of your friends for a little. You could take up a sport; go trail biking or whatever you like to do. Get away from it all and then you will see things more clearly. If you have a best friend then talk things out with them and you will probably be surprised at how much better you feel. If you do any type of recreational drugs stop! (Not accusing you, but Marijuana can make a person's moods swing back and forth.

No, because not everyone surrenders to peer presure.

Just come out and tell them that they arnt invited. But kinda lie about it. Say that there isn't enough room or you lost some of the tickets and you arnt able to cover for them.

A lot.

Then don't talk to the counslor. It is in your hands to fix your "problem" or not. And as for your friends, they obviously care about you enough to try and fix the problem you're having so don't get mad at them.

well i would tell the counciler i dont know what they are talking about if he/she asks

anybody that owns or is doing it.. so basically the starter or bigginer.

Peer pressure can play part there

yes, it is very important, esp between a father and a son...well, if you are a good dad and you want to instll some of those good value in others start with yourself, through yourson ofcourse, if wwe had much of this male bondind thingy we wouldn't be having so much woman abuse and child neglect, you knkow

Try not to get really angry..don't do anything you will regret..talk to someone and let your feelings out. It's not good to hold your feelings inside all bottled up because, if you do you'll eventually explode.

it helps because kids like to blend with pressure as in kids think that kids with dropped pants are cool so they do that

Teenagers are very influenced by peer pressure to drink in excess. It is a form of socializing and sometimes the amount of alchohol can get out of control.

Standing up to peer pressure that has to do with drugs takes a lot of courage and brains. You don't want to give into peer pressure that's has to do with drugs because:

1. they are bad for you

2. something could go wrong as things usually do when you try drugs

3. your friends should like you for you--not because you take drugs with them

The positive-pressure technique for flush involves clamping the line while still flushing the last bit of saline so that there is little or no blood reflux into the catheter upon disconnection of the syringe.
