FRIENDS ARE EVERYTHING! (Thursday, August 09, 2007 / 3:30 PM)
some people may thinks that friends are not everything that makes up their life.but i think it is. and i've done a small research.
"Friendship is an important part of social interaction process and child’s healthy development. The environment in which children are brought up is critical for the development of their personality and instincts. Friendship influences individual's personality, perceptions and motivations of children, it influences moral and emotional development of children. Experiences whether positive or negative impinge upon the rate of social and psychological development. As the most important, social interactions with peers help children to develop their communication and learning skills. The aim of the paper is to examine and illustrate the role and importance of friendship in childhood, and its impact on social interaction between children.
Friendship is defined as “a dynamic, reciprocal relationship between two individuals. As children become friends, they negotiate boundaries within which both partners function”. Cognitive mechanisms for dealing with the world - whether they are face recognition, language acquisition or emotional development - will not appear of their own accord. Just like the development of a child, the process of evolution is intertwined with the growth of culture, and 'culture' began well before evolution finally shaped people.
Children everywhere are socialized by their peer group, not by their parents. At all ages children join various play groups, circles, and they jockey for status within them. Each is a culture that absorbs some customs from the outside and generates many of its own. As children grow up they graduate from group to group and eventually join adult groups. Prestige at one level gives one a leg up at the next; most significantly, the leaders of young adolescent cliques are the first to date. At all ages children are driven to figure out what it takes to succeed among their peers and to give these strategies precedence over others.
"From my own point of view, i pity those whom thinks that friends aren't everything that makes up your life. Think about this. if friends doesnt make up your life, u wont be who u are now.
I think that sometimes when people values friendship too much, so much that when frens disappoint him/her or tell him/her off, the people will tend to trouble over it for a long time or think that the people will sure hate this friend. This will result you to misunderstand your friend. You may think that your friend take things for granted. But she might not be taking things for granted. She may look as if she dont care abt the quarrels or cold war u haf with her but maybe, in real life she care. maybe she even crying and feeling bad over it!
And if u think that by put your friends before you is stupid, i think it's not! FRIENDS ARE LIKE YOUR LIFE LONG PARTNER. THEY'RE LONGER THAN YOUR LIFE LONG PARTNER. when you're lonely or got abandon, who do u fine? when you're in trouble, who do u find? or when you wana share a good news to someone..who do u find? of course it's your friend or maybe you boyfriend but there sure must be a time when u dont haf a boyfriend. so sure u'll fine you good buddies or friends to share. to 一起度过酸甜苦辣的日子。
