Peer Pressure

[Alex k]

It's there , but not like they teach it to us. It's more realistic

 

[R2 PVP]

ye it does exist. its bad but there's no way to change it as long as some people think its better to do what every1 else is doing

 

[ghostehh]

If you cant make decisions for yourself you are a complete fuck up ....

On the side note I have been smoking marijuana and hashish for the past 3 or 4 years. I also drink and have the occasional cigarette . But never have I even thought of touching any other man made drug . That bullshit about marijuana being a gateway drug is complete bullshit . It is the people that have a weak mindset that go to other drugs and become worthless retard addicts that make a bad name for marijuana smokers. Why do you think marijuana is illegal? Because the government cant make money off of it because anyone with a brain in their skull can grow it , which results in no profit or gain for the government. Have you ever seen anyone die from smoking marijuana? NO ...

I rest my case I can go on and on about this I better stop

Man ,thats what every mary-jane smoker says....
yes ive smoked some weed too ( 4 or 5 times ) .
for example i have a friend who has been smoking for 2 years now, and he fucking does it min. 2 times a week .

As for the Peer pressure, i think it exists. Ive seen so many people who have been convinced to try some drugs , cigarettes and alcohol.
But you have to make up your own mind and not let anyone else decide for you. Thats what i think.

You spelled Nazi, judging, and your wrong. Besides, this is a peer pressure topic. Not an avatar topic.

Why do you think it exists?

It's not the question of whether it exists or not, anymore. The concept exist, and peer pressure is not tangible, so it's obviously real.

The name says it all .. Pressure that your peers put on you.

Peer pressure is only an enemy to those weak enough to succumb to it. You're not sure of anything, and anyone can override pressure.

Yes it is,but its hard to say no.. :/

Don't simply say it exist.
Elaborate on your statements.

Also, it's hard to say no when you're as weak as such a person who would say no.

How could it not exist? You have witnessed it yourself, you even turned it down. But the thing you might not realize is peer pressure can be good. Such as, you are afraid of riding a roller coaster, in the end your friends get you on the damn thing and you love it.

Quite true.

You are being pressured by your peers, so I suppose that's pretty valid. :]

It exists,
but you have to make the right decistion's in life yourself, not others.
So id say most problems like this are 20% pure pressure and 80% your fault.

 

[i <3 1 def]

If you have a backbone then peer pressure is non-existent too you.

You can say no if you want too, there not forcing the alcohol down your throat.

What of the crazy person in the crazy house who can't make decisions for there self? Is it peer pressure when someone else makes those decisions for them?

Mad statistics. Please tell me you have proof to back up that claim.
