Intimidation

Today my husband was sitting in the window waiting for Ricki to arrive home from school. She was late, and he was worried. Suddenly we received a phone call, from “R”, the activity director from Ricki's former afternoon program (which Ricki decided she didn't want to attend).

“Did you know that Ricki is here?" She querried.

So I went to fetch Ricki, who had NOT really wanted to go, but had been intimidated by a classmate to do so.(Apparently this classmate is rather overbearing and bossy.)
Which shows just how vulnerable Ricki is.
IKES!

Not sure - aren't a lot of kids and adults affected by peer pressure? I don't know how I would react to this, myself.
