A parent of a deaf child would know a thing or two about whether or not there's pressure to look into getting hearing aids or an implant for a child. We don't have to go into other people's homes to get direct experience. 
We had no pressure at all regarding implants from anyone, friend, stranger or medical professional. No one I know knew a thing about CIs at the time. Many people asked us if we were considering hearing aids. I didn't see that as pressure, just interest. I suppose if you hold some doubt about your own knowledge or decisions, you might find questions about your approach to be "pressure."
