The relationship between my peers and i when i was an adolescent was very good, nurturing, and positive. The group of friends that I have were loyal, and encouraging, and we always accepted each others differences and tried to work out problems if there were any. My friends and I got along with everyone because we valued peoples’ differences and the fact that everyone has a different personality. A real friend is always supportive, trustworthy, honest, and is there for you during the good and bad times. I am fortunate that I still have my friends from when I was in middle school, and we work hard to keep our friendship strong.
Our friendship is valuable to us and we dedicate time and effort to keeping the bonds close. I always felt accepted, and connected with my friends because we had a lot of similarities, and common interests so there was always a lot to do together. Even if there were differences among us, we still found away to make everyone comfortable. Friends are there to make you cry and laugh at the same time, help you grow into the person you will become, and they are always there when needed. Friends are apart of the person you are, and you feel incomplete without them. It is interesting to see how all my friends matured and became responsible young adults, but we still remain loyal to each other. It is fun to sit back and reminisce about the past and realize that some things we did was just because of the phase we were in.
My group of friends and I are good hearted people, and we set and example for students all throughout school, to be accepting of everyone and value people for who they are and not anything else. If everyone is treated kindly and with respect, there would be less violence in schools, and more unity among the students. Adolescents encounter many struggles and explortive ventures during this phase, and it is important for teachers to create a comfortable classroom environment for their students so that they will learn effectively. When students have loyal, encouraging, and supportive friends in school, they will be more confident and have a high self esteem, because they know that someone thinks they are important. They will also excel in school because they have a support system that they belong to.
