Many people who drink want to be the only one drinking.

Answer 1

The true statement about peer pressure is:

"Many people who drink want to be the only one drinking."

This statement reflects the idea that some individuals may engage in drinking behaviors in social situations to feel accepted or to fit in, while also wanting to establish a sense of control over social dynamics.

The other two statements are misleading; peer pressure can occur at any age, and a friend who repeatedly pressures you to drink may not have your best interests in mind.
