Have you ever given in to peer pressure?

I didn't want to go to the dance...
But the person I like is going and all my friends are going as well.

agreed. (to a certain extent. not the whole 'build character' thing)

there's more in life than just 'a dance'

peer pressure - the pressure that arises from the density of your peers. it is usually in the form of gas but can sometimes be solidified with intense heat or cold.

hmm...i've probably given into peer pressure plenty of times...but i can't think of any right now.

with the big things though, i make my own decisions on. i don't give into peer pressure with stuff like drinking, drugs, or smoking. lol, if i do it, it'll be because i decided to do it. =P and also, people never try to pressure me into anything...hah

Yup.
My parents were always strict about coming home before 12, and a lot of my friends would pressure me into staying out longer than I should going drinking and partying. I got into a lot of trouble for coming home really late, but now I know how to say no and just go home.

Yes, i think everyone would have given into peer pressure in one way or another....

If you don't to go to the dance then you shouldn't but it's really up to you!

Don't let your friends pressure you or force you to do things... then again, it's just a dance? I'd say go, have fun, but don't put yourself in danger you know. Dances are pretty fun and it only happens a few times in a year, if you don't have such a good time, just get over it. If you are DEEPLY terrified of dances, just stay home, it's not like your friends will bug you about it.

I think everyone gives into peer pressure at least once in their lifetime.

Sometimes a little push and convincing when you are already tempted and viola! You get peer pressure.

My friend pressured me into getting a facebook.

Other than that, nah, I'm pretty stubborn when it comes to things I don't want to do.

Peer pressure is silly. People always talk about "wait till you get in a gang, then you'd watch what you say"
Uh no?

Succumbing to peer pressure is pretty common and normal. It's doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing, it could be positive peer pressure too.

I've been peer pressured numerous times within the past month, but in the end, the decision is still mine. So don't feel pressured to go to this dance just because so and so is going. Go because you want to go, so you can enjoy yourself.
