Talks about how the effects of peer pressure appear to manifest most intensely during the period between childhood and young adulthood. This usually leads to kids feeling "FOMO". This is like "Through the Tunnel" because one of Jerrys main motivation throughout the story was not wanting to miss out even if it was dangerous.]]> 2022-10-26 12:30:57 UTC https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357179414 4193214 https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357184382 "I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine." - Bruce Lee]]> 2022-10-26 12:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357184382 4193214 https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357191253 Peer Pressure Poem (Tui Jameson)]]> 2022-10-26 12:38:49 UTC https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357191253 4193214 https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357591805 Peer Pressure (TeensHealth)

In this article, the author states that people will often try to conform or fit in because they feel like they have to, which directly ties into Jerrys case. Jerry only went through the tunnel as a means to try and fit in with the older boys.]]> 2022-10-26 16:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2357591805 4193214 https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2360511948 The Pigman (Paul Zindel)

In the Pigman, main characters Lorraine and John suffer from peer pressure throughout the story, and it leads them into dangerous situations even when they themselves rationally wish to stop. This is a lot like Jerry, who ends up regretting his decision midway through swimming in the tunnel. ]]> 2022-10-28 12:03:22 UTC https://padlet.com/4193214/lxbtzkx1lhxw08z2/wish/2360511948
