Answer:

Peer pressure feeds on the things that frighten us. ... Students often give in to peer pressure because they don't want to be rejected by friends. Youth are also much less likely to be sure of themselves or what they want, making them more susceptible to peer pressure that pushes them to test boundariesPeer Pressure. Peers play a large role in the social and emotional development of children and adolescents. Their influence begins at an early age and increases through the teenage years. It is natural, healthy and important for children to have and rely on friends as they grow and mature. but you should listen to what you think is right and you should be able to tell what's right from wrong and not have to be told by kids who are younger or few years older than you and are very careless to tell you how to do things. I do not you can get yourself into so much harm and you're easy to get manipulated by if you consistently listen to people that tell you those things and especially if they're not your parents or an adult that you know either. because people can tell you so many things just because they want to see you fail. peer pressure is not a good thing to live the rest of your life with or to just have a simple moment to and you should honestly not do the same thing to other people don't pressure them into doing something that you know for a fact that you couldn't do yourself.

yKpoI14uk [10]
The claim Paine refuted is the claim that Britain should govern American colonies because the colonists are of English descent. If you haven't, read Common Sense. It's an awesome read, and actually isn't too hard to understand, even if you aren't used to reading old English.

Pitifully


The word 'pitifully' in this excerpt is significant because it tells the reader the narrator's feelings towards the girl getting married. Without that word, there would not be the same level of insight or emotion into the narrator's thoughts. the word 'pitiful' has a negative connotation, if you are feeling pity for someone it means you do not think they should be in the situation they are in and wish you could help get them out of it. This tells the reader that the narrator feels the bride is far too young to be getting married and maybe it's something out of her control or that she is being forced into.
