Youth Concerns

The main point that i would like to highlight is peer pressure.It can lead to many problems.Peer pressure is simply pressure from friends.They face pressure like skipping schools, bullying others,stealing,smoking or taking drugs.For example,they might go play rather then going schools, shoplift for the excitement.They usually succumb to it because they fear they might not be liked by others and also because they want to try something new.Precisely most of them are doing it,it influences others to join.
Peer pressure is mainly from bad friends.

And once they join they realise they could not quit.Some might have experienced being bullied by them after quitting.This is because he is despised by them for not daring to do things they did.They start to avoid everyone as they become scared and eventually leads to depression and other illnesses.In worse cases,it leads to suicide as they feel lonely and uncared for.

Peer pressure also leads to financial problem and it actually links.Because of friends who are very rich,seeing them buying branded goods make them want to get money to buy them to be in the same 'class' as them.They do not want to be look down on.It leads to family becoming poor and broke for those who are already poor as their children will constantly ask for money.They would also go to work to get money and thus neglecting their studies.If not,they would not have money to stay in the same 'class' and their friends might leave them,which eventually leads to suicide once again.
