Peer pressure is a quintessential part of teenage life — the need to fit in, to have friends, and to avoid conflict. Phyllis Fagell joins us to share strategies to encourage kids to think and act for themselves. 

In this episode, we talk about…

  • The difference between peer pressure and “social contagion”
  • The role of gender in peer pressure 
  • The role of social media in peer pressure 
  • What to do when your kid is following the “bad” ones
  • How to counter the “everyone is doing it” argument
