Peer pressure is when someone is pressured to do something by members of their social group. It can be a very powerful force tha

t encourages someone to do something that he or she is not comfortable doing. Negative peer pressure may involve drugs, alcohol, tobacco, shoplifting, truancy, academic dishonesty, or sexual activity.

Answer:

As someone who has been negatively peer pressured, saying no is easier said than done. My ex-friends once tried to get me to vape, I was not comfortable with vaping at all. They asked me if I wanted to try it when we were hanging out one afternoon. I told them no, and instead of being okay with my decision, they said that I should and that it's so much fun. I said no again and that still was not enough for them. They told me again that I should try it and that I wouldn't regret it. So finally I got up and left (we were at the elementary school that was right by my house), and went home. I stopped hanging out with them after that. If I would in a situation like this again, I would tell whoever was peer pressuring me no and if they were still pressuring me, I would get up and walk away, or call one of my parents to come get me.

Answer:

I wouldn't accept especially if I wasn't comfortable doing it. If they would pressure me more, I'd find a close restroom and either call or text someone trust, or i'd get out the situation. Being under peer pressure is a big thing, and not knowing what to do is even worse.

Should adults ever make negative statement to children, such as “stop hitting” or “no pushing”? Why or why not?
slavikrds [6]
Hi there!

In my opinion, adults should only occasionally make negative statements to children - only when the situation goes out of control. Otherwise, I think adults should tell kids the right thing to do in a patient manner, such as saying "why don't we read a book?" instead of "stop fighting!".

Hope this helps!

Doing an essay for AP Psych.
Darya [45]

I’m a shy person, but if I think a guy likes me, I would observe how he acts around me, and ask my friends how he usually acts around his friends. When I’m around my crush, I stop goofing off with my friends and low key try to get his attention some how.

Julie, a consumer, is having difficulty understanding the information her agent, Victor, is presenting at her in-home appointmen
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

In this specific scenario, Victor has not been compliant and has violated the call guidelines set forth by the CMS permissions. This is because he contacted Julie's cousin without first obtaining his consent. Since the email is his private information it is a violation to simply accept the email address and contact the recipient. In order to be compliant Victor should have declined the request from Julie until Julie talks to her cousin and the cousin provides permission.
