Why do you feel undue pressure from others can be harmful?

pressures is really not good in all its forms. as parent, we should give pressures to our children to grow and be good at school etc because it will instill in their minds the pressure we have created and may lead to some depressions and other psychological problems in the future. also you are right, that parents should be aware of what our children are into. we can do it through frequent conversations during meal times. that is meal times are very important that just for health reasons but through this family members are being updated with each other. and of course, as much as possible be a friend to your children because it that way they will be open to you and will tell everything they want to try, their friends, their sports, interests and all. never let children down because that will affect their self esteem.

I agree I think it is good to install a lot of self confidence into children so they know that they don't need to Do things just to be cool. I agree that Some pressure is good pressure. It is sad how much peer pressure destroys the lives of teenagers and children.
