ReplyDeleteAs the company so the colour that we have listening and practically observing around us. I strongly feel that there was a good peer pressure which has changed life of many children and vice versa. Many a times during my college days, after committing a mistake in the influence of peers, I used to go in self blame and guilt. After growing up, It's a great realization that those things were really important to reach at the stage where I am today.

Never faced a situation like that. Peers do influence, but always guide children to choose good friends .Teachers should be alert and always guide them in the right direction with timely intervention.
DeletePeers definitely play a very important role in life. We have to be wise enough to select friends. When I was a teenager, students were there who use to distract me.But my father had taught me that learn to say NO to things which your heart n mind doesn't permit. We should know what is right or what is wrong, then it's impossible to get influenced by friends or in sometimes we should talk to a person whom we look upon.

All peer pressure is not bad. It is peer pressure that makes a child competitive and push herself to do better than others. However teachers and parents must ensure that it is a healthy spirit of competitiveness.
ReplyDeleteWell I was nurtured well enough at school by my teachers and home by parents, so I didn't indulge in committing offences or hurting someone by stealing . However, yes I used to bunk school and stay at home sometimes when I was unprepared for my class tests and all, while some peers who were were as unprepared as me did attend school and write the tests to ensure that atleast they get a practice of the kind of questions that are asked in exams. Taking a cue from them I also started appearing for exams , but well prepared. peer influence plays a major role in decision making and to a certain extent shaping one's life.

ReplyDeleteWhile I acted under the influence of my friends as I wanted to belong to the group and not be left out, my inner consciousness never gave consent. There have been instance where i have either managed the situation to control damage or stop the wrong doing. However, as a strategist I was excellent and my friends appreciated the same.
ReplyDeleteWell i never stole from anyone.was peer pressured once into lying to parents about something but managed to not do that.
ReplyDeleteWas never a part of any such activities, but I am sure that by indulging into such activities doesn't make you less of a person. These things can be worked with love, affection & understanding him/her overall as an individual.
ReplyDeleteMaybe in the context of fashion, since I shopped with friends, so their opinion with regards to clothes mattered
ReplyDeletePeer provide a unique context in which children learn a range of critical social emotional skills, such as empathy, cooperation, and problem-solving strategies.Peers play a vital role in developing the children during adolescence to become developed in good character by analysing them what is right and what is wrong.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be both positive as well as negative. I believe that students must be individually made aware of the implications of them both. Mental strength and awareness about the tender stage of life they are at must be imparted.

ReplyDeletePeer should have an positive impact.
ReplyDeletePeer relationships are very influential in adolescence. During this time, when young people are developing autonomy from their parents, peers become a significant source of social and emotional support. The attitudes of adolescents’ friends can have both a positive and negative influence. Strong peer attachments can enhance a young person’s wellbeing while problems in peer relationships, such as bullying, can have significant psychological, physical, academic and social-emotional consequences for both victims and perpetrators.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can influence positively or negatively
ReplyDeletePeers play a vital role. It influences ones personality.Good and bad
ReplyDeleteDuring my childhood days there were only land phones. The phone would be locked from outside by the parents, to reduce the misuse and cut down the bill. My friends used to boast about how they fooled their parents and used the phone without their permission.
ReplyDeleteI always felt bad in this and never tried to do that because I was always concerned about my parents - their trust and love, which I never wanted to loose. More over their concern happened to be my concern also .So I didn't want to do anything that might put them in trouble.
Peer group influences a lot during the adolescence period. We as teachers must be able to imbibe in students, values , thoughts and beliefs which helps them to distinguish between what is good for them or not. Teachers can influence children .If a teacher can create a warm relationship with student definitely they will open up and discuss their issues with teacher seek help and accept his/her valuable suggestions.
Under peer pressure i remember doing few things against conscience. But after doing i have always regretted and felt bad. Then i decided to do the thing that troubles me afterwards.

ReplyDeleteDuring adolescence, peer group seems to be more reliable and effective. Many times they force us to do certain things which are ethically wrong. But it's only the teachings And closeness of our parents which helps us to take right decision. It's better that parents should have a good and close relation with their kids.

ReplyDeleteI was the leader in my group and responsible for disuading my friends from staying away cigrette smoking
ReplyDeleteEnjoying in adolescence is natural. Some of my friends lied to their parents for going to cinema. They said they went to college for studies. But l was honest with my parents and did the things which pleased them.
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role at that age. more enjoyment was there in adolescence
ReplyDeletePeer pressure at times make us do things we do not want to do actually but if we get right guidance and are open with our parents, close ones or teachers , we can then understand the difference between good or bad and right or wrong. My grandmother is my confidant and at that time too she helped me understand these differences, so I was not swayed by these emotions or the peer pressure.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure helped me to progress as a student.

ReplyDeletePeers always influence teenager. They learn from each other many things without giving second thought whether it is right or wrong. I also got influenced but parents and teachers always reminded what good and right for us.
ReplyDeleteI had really strict parents who wanted me to become a child with the exact moral compass as them and this worked out to an extent. I used to think lowly of peers who did "bad things" and never wanted to be of that same label, this prevented me from testing out the habits that I myself deemed bad because of my parents' ideologies.

ReplyDeleteMy father was a strict disciplinarian so I never had the guts to do anything that was wrong. Although my friends tried to coax me sometimes into doing wrong I always refused. I did think they were so cool but when their wrong doing was discovered and they would be scolded or punished I would feel it was good I didn't listen to them.

ReplyDeleteDuring teenage years, stealing chocolates from mother felt like a victory, because she wouldn't allow me to eat otherwise. I also saw my friends consuming cancerous substances just to look cool, but only later in our lives we realised why stealing chocolates or indulging in consumption of cancerous substances was not good.

ReplyDeletePeers play important role
ReplyDeleteMy peers have played a vital role in moulding my personality. I have thankfully chosen friends with positive influences. Ofcourse we have played harmless mischief on some occasions, which when I recall do not make me feel ashamed or feel guilty. In one case we did opt to experience smoking once. And from that we realised that we are not going to repeat it.
ReplyDeletePeers played major role in my life. My personality and goals have totally changed because of my friends at this age.
ReplyDeleteIt’s important to remember that peer influence and pressure is a normal part of adolescence. As your child starts moving away from the parent-child relationship and seeking their own independence and identity, their peers will become more important to them. However, if you’re concerned about the effects of peer pressure on your child and think that it’s negatively impacting on their life, there are things that you can try to support them.
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role in growing years. Close affinity will surely help children choose the peer group judiciously.

ReplyDeleteYes, a peer is required to discuss the personal as well public information related to to him or her. They can take care about themselves.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be both positive and negative. It can frame and destroy and individual's life. It is where the role of parents come into being as most important , effective parenting time is essential as every child then starts considering parents to be more reliable and starts sharing their thoughts with them and they can correct them then and then without causing spread of the negative thoughts further. Patience and effective communication on the part of the parents helps in these cases.
ReplyDeletePeers influences positively or sometimes negatively so it is the role of the parents and even of teacher to some extent to make children understand what is right and what is wrong.

I used to have very few trust worthy and reliable peers around me. Since being in big groups influence the behaviour of an individual. He/she will never find out his / her strengths and weakness. They may rely more on the judgements of the peer groups which will not reveal his own identity.

ReplyDeleteVery crucial period of one's life. Difficult to tackle a situation. No idea whether they are right or wrong. Depends mostly on the peer group for support or advice. Teenagers should be led affectionately. This can be done only by a teacher or parents.
ReplyDeleteNever had negative peer influence either in the school or college and did not indulge in risky behaviour but once in a while bunked college classes to watch a movie after informing the mother about it.

Gradually My mind then full of imagenation and values of these books entered into my mind . I observed my classmates and friend's some of them are significant role play in my thought process. There are many classmates from poor economic and social background but no difference between the students. As a facilitator I always touch with my student.

It turned out to be a new positive beginning.

ReplyDeleteI did not have any such feel ing
ReplyDeleteResearch shows that adolescence
ReplyDeletecontrary to views that predominate
in our media and culture—is actually
positive for both teens and adults.
Most adolescents succeed in school,
are attached to their families and their
communities, and emerge from their
teen years without experiencing serious
problems such as substance abuse or
involvement with violence. Although
teens experience emotions intensely—a
consequence of brain development—
for most, the teen years are not filled
with angst and confusion. Rather,
they are a time of concentrated social,
emotional, and cognitive development

Peers play an important role.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in teenage , I look at my friends(few) as my role models. I wanted to try things as like my friends do.
Growing up I was always worried what impression my friends had on my family. I thought my father was very old fashioned , did not dress up in fashionable clothes , we did not have a big house etc. But then I realized my father although he was not dressed up in fashionable clothes was very forward thinking , well read and a gentleman in all senses. Even though I didn't have a big house I had a lovely home where all the members gave unconditional love to each other.
ReplyDeleteI always used to share the importance of family bond and parents thought about their child to my friends while I was seeing such things. I hope it may help them to think about their activity.

ReplyDeletePeers play an important role in ones life.
ReplyDeleteBut we must always choose right set of friends.
A person learns/ come to know all good and bad n life but what is important to learn is to how, when, where, what to use
Peers have a great influence in shaping an adolescent physically, socially, morally and emotionally. Peer influence can be both positive and negative. One should be guided to opt for the right choice.
ReplyDeleteI was brought up in a mediocre family where values were imbibed in our nurturing. From very young age we could differentiate right & wrong . So if I see any wrong thing among my friends , firstly I try to avoid the situation
ReplyDeleteI was brought up ona very mediocre family..... So if I saw any thing wrong on my friends I would try ignore it.
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role in life. When I was in teenager some my friends do not know what is right and what is wrong but my parents taught us values so that we easily differentiate the wrong and right way so inspite of our peer influence we were able to chose what right and what is wrong.
ReplyDeleteThe most we did as teenagers was miss a class . I did that once and felt extremely guilty . Also came and shared with my parents. Values were very strongly imbibed .
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role in your life.They may lead to good or bad path depends on the company of your friends.
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role in a student's life . i have seen myself a student who was average in studies , changed drastically and starting getting a position in class because of positive peer pressure
ReplyDeleteI have been fortunate enough to be surrounded by all positive people around me in my growing years. It has helped me have a positive approach towards life.
ReplyDeleteIt depends upon how you select your peers or friends. Have positive people around you. As teens have goals which are challenging, pursue hobbies and make really good friend
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be a powerful force, but fortunately, increased awareness helped in deferentiating right and wrong. Parents and educators guidance helped in making right choices in life.
ReplyDeleteMy peers have played a vital role in moulding my personality.
ReplyDeletepeer pressure is not always harmful, sometimes it helps in studies and make one to cope in s/ his society adjustable.
ReplyDeletepeer pressure plays very important role. It is not always harmful, sometimes it helps in studies, taking good decisions
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be a powerful force
ReplyDeletepeer pressure depends upon how you select your peers or friends
ReplyDeleteMy upbringing by my parents was very good that I never got tempted to do wrong things
ReplyDeleteI spent my childhood in a joint family. My upbringing was with my cousins who shared the same values as mine. Due to this strong bonding with them I could handle and tackle peer pressure most of the time. I could resist the unwanted desires and temptations. I knew my boundaries and limitations. Having said that, sometimes I choose to experience my "Firsts" along with my peers but gave up the vices having experienced them once.
ReplyDeleteSo according to me a strong emotional support from family, relatives, cousins, teachers can help one to handle negative peer pressure.
I have lot of memories of school days when I used to play with my peers. They were very cooperative. Some time they did mischief and got punishment together. But still they were very valuable for me.
ReplyDeletePEERS PLAY A VERY VITAL ROLE IN GETTING THE GOOD AND AS WELL AS BAD HABITS , Especially in senior class students you find the influence of peers a lot it may be a negative or positive peer pressure, positive is getting more involved in studies, competing , being more sincere
ReplyDeleteIt depends yupon your personality if you get carried away with the pressure or have the ability to even stand alone.
ReplyDeleteAdolescence is such a stage when one is unable to take right decision for anything due to lot of pressure from peers, mental and physical status.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be a powerful force, but fortunately, increased awareness helped in distinguishing right and wrong. Parents and educators guidance helped in making right choices in life. Peers play an important role in teenage. They want to try such things that seem cool and want to prove themselves.
ReplyDeleteI'm born and brought up in a family where we saw our parents struggled to achieve everything for us, this made me understand that for them I have to be very good, should not do any such work which makes them feel insulted.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure can be positive or negative. I was fortunate that it was positive in my case. I had changed my school and I was not comfortable conversing in English. My peers encouraged me and helped me in overcoming my inhibitions.
ReplyDeletePeers play an important role during teens. It is the time when children are impacted by either positive or negative influences. We have to be wise enough to choose friends.
ReplyDeleteAs a teen I too broke many rules under peer pressure. But if we learn from our mistakes at the right time , things can become better. My mother was a huge support and a great mentor authenticity same time. I was lucky.
ReplyDeleteYes, there had been instances when I was lured to join or follow my friends, but I always knew the consequences and where I should stop. This all because of my upbringing and good moral education in school. I wish to impart the same to the students. Students of this generation has less inhibitions compared to our generation, yet good or bad has always remained the same. All we have to do is to show them the right path without making them feel guilty. Tell them it's alright to experience things, but most important is to know where to Stop.
ReplyDeleteI lied once to go out with friends as I thought that grandparents won't give permission as we followed strict discipline, but wasn't at peace till I told it to my grandmother. She told me that it was wrong to do that and gave me confidence that I can ask her anything without being scared of being scolded.
ReplyDeleteI lied once to my grandparents as I had to go to my friend's place. I felt restless till I told it to my grandmother. She then counselled me to be open with her and not to fall prey to friends' wrong advice.
ReplyDeleteI lied to my grandparents once to go to my friend's place. later on I realised it was wrong to do that.
ReplyDeletePeers play a very important role in life. We have to be wise enough to select friends. बचपन की मित्रता बहुत आनंददायक होती है क्योंकि उसमें अच्छे बुरे का विवेक नहीं केवल मित्र का साथ ही महत्वपूर्ण होता है। बालपन ऐसे अनेक लम्हे आज भी यादों में बसे हैं जहां पर हमारा नटखटपन और अल्हड़ता की बहुत सी घटनाएं हैं।

Once I broke my piggy bank without my parents permission and gave money to my tutor and bought notebooks from her.
ReplyDeleteBeing born and brought up in a family where my parents struggled a lot to earn and were socially active, rule breaking was never needed as my parents were always supportive and guided wherever necessary.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in my teenage, it's quiet common and natural to get obsessed and attracted towards what our peers do. But everyone should have. A self control and set limits. When I came across such situations with my friends. I didn't get so fascinated and I tried to make my friends understand their mistake.
ReplyDeleteWe have to choose our friends wisely. They play an important role because they influence our thoughts and personality
ReplyDeletenothing of this sort happened .. extremely disciplined family
ReplyDeletePeers sometime act as pillars ...because if the pillars are strong ,you can stand n long last i.e. you will be successful in life. Rather rhe weak pillar that is the wrong peer company will not let you survive
ReplyDeleteI should try at first to induce my good habits on peers. If they are not changed then I should try to avoid them.
ReplyDeletePeers play a very important role in life. We have to be wise enough to select friends. I just wanted to fit in with the popular kids in school but when I saw they are indulge in wrong activity i decided to leave that group. It was not easy but we should take right decision at right time with the help and guidance of our elders and teachers.
ReplyDeleteI never tried to do such things because I never got attracted towards such things. I knew that these all are bad.
ReplyDeleteIt's true that Peer plays a very important role in one's life but the guidance, upbringing of a child, the environment, social background too plays a very important role and these directly or indirectly effects the peer influence. Sharing everything with parents and avoiding those situations as much as possible can be helpful.

ReplyDeletewhen I was a teenager, i was influenced by my friends so far as dressing up was concerned - to a large extent
ReplyDeletePeer pressure influences everyone in some way or the other. But as a good friend I would suggest them what is right and wrong.
ReplyDeleteFortunately had no friends I had who could do all this. But during polytechnic ( after 10th) when I was 16 or 17 I had friends who would force me to come to film. I went also. But I always felt guilty for not telling it to my father. Today I feel I should either had courage to tell prior to my father or bluntly deny friends. I really want my students, my children to be better prepared for it by being strong emotionally.
ReplyDeleteAt teenage, good friends were like a personal support group. Friends and friendships gave
ReplyDeletea sense of belonging, a feeling of being valued and help with developing confidence
the sense of security and comfort that comes from being with others going through similar experiences.
Information about the changes that puberty brings, and what’s going on physically and emotionally. A way to experiment with different values, roles, identities and ideas.
A social group to do new things with, especially things that are different from what families do.
peers can help as in many ways
ReplyDeletethere is no words for that age related experiences . peers teach us new things. we experience many good and bad memories with that.
ReplyDeleteI am fortunate as I had wonderful friends during my childhood. Peer pressure is something which influence the growing years of an adolescent. I had a loving family with my grandmother and elders who guided me well in those difficult times.
