Question

Generally some teenagers readily come under bad influences under peer group pressure. (i) Why do teenagers readily come under this influence ?

Answer 1

Well, because teenagers or adolescents are at an unstable condition. They are very vulnerable to new influences. They start feeling that things around them are new and interesting, and they feel that their parents and guardians are boring and not updated. Besides, friends are an informal part of life. Our friends know more about is than our parents, because we choose them over our parents. When we are bold enough to confide in them, we easily accept anything that they say, because it sounds interesting and daring. This is the leading cause of falling into bad influences.
