I find it quite sad really though, that some people are apparently browbeaten into doing things against their better wishes.

Even as a child, and certainly as a teenager, no one could force me into doing anything at all, if I didn't think it was the right thing to do.

I suppose it goes back to that old analogy of some people being wolves, and others are like sheep
Being a 16-year old in the 1950's was a totally different kettle of fish to what is happening today. Kids were brought up to respect their elders, unlike modern times when there is very little respect for anything and avararice rules the roost.
