Question

Everett’s friends want him to use a permanent dye to color his hair. How can Everett use negotiation to counteract the peer pressure?

Change the topic so that he has more time to consider his decision.

Say that he considered how fun it would be but he just cannot do it.

Suggest that he use a temporary hair dye to color his hair instead.

Tell his uncle about the situation and explain that he does not want to.

Answer 1

He can suggest that he use a temporary hair dye to color his hair instead. That would be negotiating with his peers as he is engaging with them on the same topic and not avoiding it or seeking help from others, he is making a reasonable alternative suggestion that will hopefully please all parties involved.
