Arcrasia

Acrasia refers to a lack of self-discipline, or the tendency to act in ways that are contrary to normal. It can also refer to times when someone acts against their better judgement though weakness of will. An example that happens frequently in childhood and teen years is when a child or young person is led into bad, illegal or destructive behavior by their peer group even when they know what they are doing is wrong.
