I picked option B, mostly because I don't have headphones. I guess the findings are sound and peer pressure really does exist in a high school society, I'll even admit it, but not everyone is prone to peer pressure that substancial.
Yes even I am peer pressure, like the other day at a Super Bowl party, I was told to steal a Packers hat and throw it upstairs. I did it and was I peer pressured? Yes, but I thought about the consequences and it really was no big deal. But if someone is in the car with me and as my teammates say, "would tell me to floss it to catch up" (to speed) of course I'm not going to do that. My parents raised me not to give into that kind of thing.
So I guess short version, I do agree with what the doctors were saying in the article that teenages are peer pressure, but not always to that severaty. As teenagers we do make dumb decisions sometimes, but isn't that the only way to learn?
