Answer:
a. Because it is very likely you will face these situations in the future.
Step-by-step explanation:
"Peer pressure" refers to the effect that peers or friends have on an individual. This could be both "positive" and "negative." When children/teens start forming a set of friends, they are most likely to put influences on each other. Being part of a group will most likely result to a person trying to do something that is acceptable in the group.
For example, if the person's social circle are into smoking, then the individual will most likely do it. This is what you call negative peer pressure. Since this is very common around the world and kids will later grow up and find their social circles, it is very important to teach them on how to come up with a plan on how they should respond to negative peer pressure.
