peer pressure

My 300th video, yea…meh.. ^_^ Life is hard enough with enemies to have to deal with friends that try and talk us into something hurtful or stupid. Peers influence your life, even if you don’t realize it, just by spending time with you. You learn from them, and they learn from you. It’s only human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’s doing it” may influence some kids to leave their better judgment, or their common sense, behind. It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away, and resist doing something when you know better. If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty if you’ve made a mistake or two. Talking to a parent, teacher, or school counselor can help you feel much better and prepare you for the next time you face peer pressure.

    I’m 32, I didn’t have /felt peer pressure during my school time from friends… no cigarettes, weed, alcohol, and nobody forced me to. I do and make my own decisions, I don’t listen to mass media, other people that don’t have or share my opinions. cheers! =)

  10. exctinctupinthis says:

    i think peer pressure is a bunch of shit, you make your own desiscions
    take weed, you do it bc u want to
    no one forces you to take weed, they just say w.e. its fun, but i can personally recall my friend sayin try it its fun, but dont do it if you dont want to
    but i would say tht doing something stupid is a lot worse than not
    theyll call u a pussy for the next half hour, then forget it
    if u hurt urself doin it, theyr gunna remember for years to come
    think about it

    @SentryFilms thanks for requesting this!

  16. sockembopers12 says:

    I know right?! No one has EVER offered me free weed, and insulted me for not taking it. Oh, and for the record, peer pressure is crap. I make my own decisions. Period.

  17. JayCeeTheRasta says:

    i smoke the erb, because its the sacrament of my religion, kind of like alcohol is in the bible. but much respect to you, a person must be dem selves. so kids, do your own thing, let them be them and you be you.

  18. gnich24 says:

    good stuff

  19. normtheclone says:

    Man I wish people were like “yo smoke my fucking weed. Smoke my weed or your a faggot. I won’t be your friend if you don’t smoke this weed.” I don’t know anyone that would want me to smoke there weed. No, but for real peeps, if you don’t want to do something, don’t do it. Tomorrow, or next week, nobody will remember that you were a pussy. They’ll still be you friend. I’ve done some dumb shit. Don’t do something if you feel uncomfortable doing it.
