youd know what Im talking about. Peer pressure
takes plenty of persistence and severance. You
must be persistent about your idea or no one will

your position or idea. As children we faced
pressure from our peers all the time. We were
tempted to steal, lie and cheat. Even in adulthood
these pressures still exist...

It is the end of the world as we know it. or at
least most of us do. It is books like that of
Foresters that shove the truth in our faces so
that it is almost impossible to deny the fact that
we (the human race) will in the end create, and

Tone Of Voice Due To The Fact

At a family home, in the living room, immediately
following dinner, is where I begin my
observations. I have chosen to observe teenagers
communicating. I chose this as my topic of
observation because I believe that it will be very
interesting to see teenagers converse and use
slang and body language, or nonverbal
communication. I believe teenagers speak their
minds most of the time so it will be fun seeing
what they are thinking and how they communicate.
My observational period is brief and defi...
