try cigarettes.Making decisions on your own is hard enough,but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another itcan be even harder.People who are your age,like your classmates,are called peers.When they try to influence how you act,to get you to do something,it s calledpeer pressure.Peers can have a positive influence on each other.Maybe another student in yourscience class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system.Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book,and now everyone sreading it.These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.Sometimes peers influence each otherin negative ways.For example,a few kidsin school might try to get you to cut class with them;yoursoccer friend might tryto convince you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.日日 期期：二二 零零 二二二二 年年 1 1 月月 1 1 日日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日 It is tough to be the only one who
