If you think peer pressure is most relevant to teenagers, you really need to sit down and rethink peer pressure.

It is certainly the most obvious and kind of archetypal kind of peer pressure, which doesn’t mean that it’s exclusive to teenagers.

That's still thinking of it the wrong way.

Peer pressure among adults is far more widespread and powerful than the limited peer pressure among teenagers.
