Peer pressure can cause people to avoid making friends outside of their own clique, follow trends without thinking, try to achieve an impossible look, not take school seriously, and let anger turn into violence. Handling Peer Pressure examines the many different kinds of peer pressure, where it comes from, and how to beat it--and tells the stories of some remarkable people who did. |
