While this peer pressure is usually not addressed, although it can change a person's personality in a way that he starts to behave, dress and even speak like his peers. This happens when a person tries to be a part of the group, but they don't accept him until he actually starts to look like him. For instance, when I tried to be a part of the skateboarding group, as they were also from the same street, they were not very open to teaching and mingling with me until I started to dress and act like them. This eventually leads me to start drinking as they all were regular drinkers unlike me so in order for them to be my good friends I started to go to pubs and drinking regularly.
