Positive peer pressure is when a peer’s influence leads someone to make healthier, more productive, or growth-oriented choices. It often happens when a friend Encourages you to study more, try a new skill, or engage in prosocial behaviors, rather than engage in risky or negative activities. How it typically looks
- Studying together or joining a study group to improve grades.
- Choosing to participate in a sport, club, or volunteer activity because peers model commitment and effort.
- Peers speaking up against gossip, bullying, or harmful behavior and guiding each other toward respectful choices.
- A friend with healthy habits (like exercising or avoiding substances) influencing others to adopt similar routines.
