- Abstract
As our technological world continues to evolve, people are encountering different forms of pressure incrementally, both physical and mental. The world for teenagers has completely reshaped itself into another form compared to the childhood their parents had experienced. The importance of education had become evident while the pressure from daily school life is haunting the students down. The new Generation Z are experiencing a fundamental shift in the structure of our society. This ongoing change has generated a variety of difficulties that are unseen before. The compulsion to conform to their peers willingly or unwillingly has become one of the greatest challenges they currently confront. This progressive conformity has made its way to effect adolescents both positively and negatively. In this research paper, I will be identifying how different types of conformity occurs and what urges them to become inevitable upon certain populations; following with potential solutions to solve this issue.
