I think what happens is that teens judge themselves based on how others see them, and try to change themselves according to that. This can be reflected in simple things such as clothing, and also major things such as the social groups people are in. Social media makes this effect worse because then people are exposed to even more opinions and judgments online, so they feel even more

Students feel a lot of pressure when trying to fit in with their peers. According to the video, I am seeing a lot of kids who are doing illegal activities just for the sake

I think that students in my school may feel that are pressured to fit in. In the video, they give several examples of how students try to fit in such as the way the dress, smoking, drinking, and even more. I think that people should realize that you're only putting yourself in more danger.

I believe living your best life is having fun and being happy, teens tend to perceive themselves with opinions from others which can change their views and beliefs. Social media plays a major role because it can cause teenagers to try and do things that are not good for them. People feel pressured in my school with the grades and also the work they get from their classes.

Students are more likely to give into peer pressure. Based on what I saw in the video, the main cause is probably the social groups that they are in.

I feel that people feel more pressured when teachers give out homework. It actually relates to what they said in the video. I feel that the homework i something that students are forced to do and students or any person feels more pressured when they are forced to do something.

I think students in my school feel most pressured about fitting in. Some people may feel like they have to act a certain way or act a way in order to be accepted. In the video, one girl said she started following her friends and doing things they wanted to do even though she felt uncomfortable doing it. This type of peer pressure isn't good.

Teenagers these days think negatively when people around them are different. They basically try to change who they are as a person. I feel that teenagers have a lot of peer pressure when a larger group of friends try to convince them to do something they dont want to do.

Teenagers are most likely to be affected by peer pressure because of how fragile their minds are. And want to fit in because that is the "cool" thing to do and if they dont do it they are seen as uncool. and they dont want this so they fall for peer pressure.

Reacting to the video< I feel like there are many contributions to teenage pressure including, parent expectations, your own possible goals, and mainly your surroundings.I think that being able to talk to somebody when needed, that would be beneficial.

In the video, one of the guy talked about how the children are branded by the brands that they wear. It's really ridiculous and stupid to be judged your clothing. People in my school usually struggle to fit in and get better GPA etc

People in my school feel most pressured to fit in and get good grades. Students will do anything to be involved in the "right crowd". They will cheat on test and classwork or vape and smoke just like the people said in the video. I feel you can't do nothing about this because it is their obligation to decide if they want to change or not.

I thought it was really interesting that the students who speak about peer pressure talk about their experiences with smoking and drinking.

Students in school may feel pressured about how they are perceived by their peers. Factors include clothing, drug usage, grades, sports, etc. There should be a discussion on solving these issues, during school general assemblies in the auditorium.

I believe students are most pressured by social norms, they want to seem like they are just like other people at their school so they seem normal in the eyes of others. They dress different ways, listen to certain music, and speak a certain way in order to not seem like an outcast.

students are peer pressured by many outside influences. They try to fit a persona and when they ultimately fail, they fall into deep depression and turn to 🤬.

I feel students feel more pressured to "fit in" and dress a certain way and act a certain way that really isn't who they are. I feel that this should be openly discussed and addressed or else it with continue to be an issue.

I feel that everyone tend to feel more pressured into dressing like one another and adapting to someones style, and also gaining their bad habits.
