Peer pressure occurs when you see what your mate's are doing and act on them to fit in even without direct interaction. Someone can learn something good from the peer pressure like working towards a common goal, participating in community activities, or making choice that will add value to their lives.
Bad peer pressure pushes someone to risky, harmful, or something that they never intended doing, such as engaging themselves in substance abuse or aggressive behavior. They feel like they need to belong or valued worrying about being left out can lead to joining bad groups or following bad friends. During the adolescence age the influence of peer pressure feels strong making some to go astray. How to succeed in this stage of life, recognize your own values and beliefs to make choices that feels right for you. Is alright to say no to actions you are not comfortable with even if it means being different from your peers. Mingle with friends who respect your decision and accept you for who you are. Develop self-confidence to feel more secure in your choices and resist pressure to refuse things that makes you uneasy. Always commit yourself to God in whatever you are doing or any decisions you want to make because him alone can lead you to the right path of life.
