I need this for a school newspaper article and I can’t find it anywhere!

I would imagine 100% of middle school students are subject to some form of peer pressure. Remember, peer pressure can be in the form of "big" things such as going to a party with alcohol or taking a puff of a cigarette…or it could be "smaller" things (less noticeable) like telling a lie or doing someone else’s homework. Also, peer pressure is usually talked about with a negative connotation, but peer pressure can also be positive. Friends can pressure you into doing the right thing, too!

   100% All people not living in caves nor completely isolated from humanity due to illness or tragedy are subject to the pressure their community of peers places on them. It is the individual’s ability to think for herself, believe in herself and respect herself that enables her to resist peer pressure.
