Answer:
1. Mario should continuously deny the offered alcohol no matter how much he is teased. Although peer pressure can be quite hard to deal with, Mario should remember that he is putting himself at risk if he consumes the liquor. If his friends persist, Mario should simply walk away.
2. By taking this route, Mario risks being bullied by his "friends". It is possible that the boys who pressured him will tell other people at his school about the incident, leading to more bullying. Mario may face social isolation because people may view him as a "wuss".

Answer:
This is an example of egocentrism.
Explanation:
Egocentrism is characteristic of the preoperational stage. Children are still incapable of understanding that what they see is not what others see, what they feel is not what others feel.
