Peer pressure, the strong influence from members of the same age group or social group on others' psychology, thoughts and behaviour, has remained widespread among teenagers in recent years. If teenagers are unable to tackle it, they will wilt under the pressure of low self-esteem and depression. In the digital age, young students are overwhelmed with tremendous online articles about admirable achievements of 'someone else's child' or 'a prodigy next door'. Consequently, reality is replete with teens who seem reserved and like to hide in their own room for fear of being asked about exam results or tolerating unfavourable comparisons from their relatives and acquaintances. In addition, many teens nowadays tend to make friends with those who study well or have good looks, so many young students have to change who they are so as to fit in with their peers. In other words, weak-minded and average individuals become worn out in an attempt to get flying colours, look slim and fit as well as possess cool tech gadgets. To handle negative peer pressure, students need to alter their opinions, care for their own feelings more than others' thoughts and trusting in their own abilities. Accepting one's imperfections is another way to stop pushing themselves beyond the limits of their mental endurance.
