TYPES OF PEER PRESSURE
• Positive Peer Pressure - When someone urges you to
do something that is good for you. • Friendly Peer Pressure - When someone who is your friend tries to get you to do something you may or may not want to do. • Indirect/Tempting - When someone tries to persuade or convince you to do something you do not want to do. • Teasing - When someone makes fun of you to try to get you to do something you do not want to do. • Heavy Peer Pressure/ Bullying - When someone threatens you, physically or verbally, in an attempt to get you to do something you do not want to do. Difference Between Negative and Positive Peer Pressure • What if your teen really doesn't like sports, but pushes himself to do it to please his friends or to be accepted? • Therefore, he probably doesn't do too well at it, and gets only blows at his self esteem from the very friends he is trying so hard to impress. • That is a form of negative peer pressure.
