I think that the writer talks about good peer pressure, and bad peer pressure. I think that starting in middle school; children tend to spend more time with their peers and less time with their parents, because my friends are always asking if they could come over my house.
I don’t think that peer pressure is always negative because, when my friends and I play football, sometimes somebody will say “I can’t do it”, we say yes you can or just try it and see if you make it. I think that bad things like drugs, alcohol, and steeling are encouraged sometimes. I think that things like that are more common in middle school because, kids in elementary school are not use to being exposed to stuff like that. Also in high school, people are more mature about it.
I think that it is hard for a student to turn down their closest friend, a boyfriend or girlfriend, and the “cool” kids because, the kids who are trying to fit-in are scared of getting made fun of, or jumped.
If a peer is pressuring me and I know that it is a negative thing that they are pressuring me to do, I just say no or tell them to leave me alone, or just ignore them.

Steve Harmon is a 16-year-old boy who is charged with a case of murder because; he was pressured into doing robbing a store. He is a black male that is a psycho, who think that his life is a movie, he also keep calling himself a monster in his head over and over again. The setting of this story in the beginning is in a dark jail cell, with a mirror over a steel sink in the cell of Steve Harmon. The mirror is six inches high, and scratched with names of some guys who were there before him. To me the story is a depressing one because, everybody except for his lawyer is thinking negatively about him. I think that Steve is going to have a hard time trying to prove his innocence to the judge and the jury. I also think that he will be sentenced to jail for a few months, which will probably help him, become a better person, and improve his life to be a better one than which it was before.
