One of the best things you can teach you children is to ignore social pressure.

Exactly , look what happens in the US some people fall for social pressure to have an iPhone because everyone use iMessage

It's amazing that you're such an illuminated parent, and no doubt a blessed human being who doesn't suffer social pressure, but your point is meaningless/harmful as it ignores the reality that most humans and parents suffer from social pressure.

Therefore it's important to teach children to deal with it.
