Diagnostic Test
There is ongoing debate that the peer pressure has an positive effect on society. I think that the peer pressure affects positively. There is mainly two reasons why I think about it.
First of all, without any criteria, we can’t assign an aim. Through a competition, we can experience hard things and we can learn from our competitor. Let me give you an example, three years ago, I took an art test to go to art college. I intrigued from other friends who got good skills to depict their imagination. I was so surprised by their masterpieces. And I could do my best and could go to a college that I want to go to. So, I strongly believe that peer pressure has an positive effects on society.
Even assuming above is very plausible, some people may have a different position on this issue. Peer pressure can give a lots of stresses to people and it hurts their minds. And also, you can got a peaceful mind without any competition. I definitely agree with this idea but there is a more important thing we have to consider:
Secondly, we can get a lots of information from a competitor. For instance, one might be more grow through other people. We can’t live society alone. By sharing their ideas, we can make a big one. We can get a passion and professional mind through competition. Thus, I firmly believe that peer pressure has an positive effects on society.
To put it in a nutshell, there are mainly two reasons why I agree about the peer pressure: 1) Without any criteria, we can’t assign an aim. 2) We can get a lots of information from a competitor.
