Peer Pressure

Peer pressure significantly impacts adolescents, who often feel compelled to conform to social norms. Teaching assertiveness and resilience empowers adolescents to make independent decisions and maintain healthy relationships. Raising awareness about peer influence and providing decision-making strategies can equip adolescents to handle social challenges.

Relationships and Friendships

Adolescents’ relationships become more complex, involving friendships, romantic entanglements, and family dynamics. Promoting open communication, empathy, and boundary-setting is essential to help adolescents build healthy relationships. Guiding effective communication and conflict resolution skills prepares them for adult relationships.
