Feeling the Pressure from Peers
I feel very fortunate that I have never felt the effects of peer pressure. Throughout middle school and high school, I was friends with people who never made me feel as though I had to give into the things they were doing. As I found out friends were doing things that I did not approve of, I would end the friendship so that I was not affected by their poor choices. I had very supportive and loving friends in high school and college, and I am so thankful for people who were willing to have a high moral standard for themselves and their friends.
