As we know that pressure is inversely proportional to area, so an increase in area means decrease in pressure.
School bags are provided with broad straps to increase the surface area in contact with the shoulders and reduce pressure on the shoulders.
If thin straps would be used, then surface area in contact with the shoulders would decrease which will lead to increase in pressure on shoulders.
