Values
• Values- the beliefs &
standards of conduct
that are important to a
person
• Values are also instilled
through cultural
heritage, religious
beliefs, and family
traditions
• You apply your values to
the decisions that you
make everyday.
Friends
• As we mature we
meet people outside
our families & we
make friends
• Friends who share
your interests and
values can be a
source of positive
peer pressure
Relationships in Adolescent

relationships with your
peers is important for
your social health

variety of school,
religious, and
community activities
can promote your
mental/emotional and
social growth.

(individual/groups) you
probably experience peer
pressure.

that people your age may have
on you
• Peer pressure can be positive or
negative
Peer pressure continued…
• Peer pressure is especially influential
for adolescents with low self-esteem.
• In order to feel a sense of belonging,
they may engage in high-risk
behaviors or activities that go against
their values.
