My daughter is 9 years old and she is in a good public school. All the children in her school are from affluent families and we a middle class family. Her friends bring high end mobiles to school and now she also wants the same. I tried explaining to her but she says that her friends are forcing her to do so. They always show off and she feels sidelined.Peer pressure is really affecting me as well as my daughter.
