7 Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way, but the folly of fools is deceiving.
We know that fools loves company and that we should be weary of their influence, but the past reasoning has been because they are bad for you. Here, Proverbs suggests that they are simply not good for you. Whether it's health, wealth or morality, almost all the research I've read suggest that peer pressure, even for adults, matter most. The wise produce wisdom, the unwise deceive with a bad sales pitch.
