For example, he does not use drugs or alcohol, he does not fight with others, he does not talk back or behave disrespectfully towards his father, etc. However, once the rebellious Alyssa is introduced to his life, he begins to act rebelliously as well, due to the fact that Alyssa tells him that he should do the rebellious actions. Some of James' new rebellious actions include; punching his father in the face, stealing his car, and running away. 
In regards to the textbook, this is called socialization, in where, adolescents become similar to each other mainly because "...friends influence each other" (Adolescence, pg. 192).]]> 2018-03-24 00:42:29 UTC https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245683486 crod124 https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245683875 On this episode, Alyssa commits many actions that are very respectful and rebellious. For example, she talks back to her mother, she yelled at her old friends, she used lots of foul language to a complete stranger, she began drinking alcohol, she ran away, etc. According to the textbook, the chances of her committing/participating in these such actions are very high. To further explain, the textbook states that, "...adolescents in stepfamilies are even more at risk for this sort of problem behavior than are adolescents in single parent families" (Adolescence, pg. 158). Do to the fact that Alyssa now lives with her biological mother, step-father, and step-siblings, actions like the ones that Alyssa is committing, very much so makes sense. ]]> 2018-03-24 00:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245683875 crod124 https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245684488 In regards to the textbook, it stated that results from a survey showed that, "25% of adolescents report that something that happened online led to a face-to-face argument with someone, and nearly that precent reported that something online led to the end of a friendship" (Adolescence, pg. 272). In relation to this episode, Alyssa got in a big argument with one of her friends, due to the fact that, Alyssa did not appreciate the message her friend sent her on social media. Ultimately, it caused the end of that friendship. ]]> 2018-03-24 01:05:23 UTC https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245684488 crod124 https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245685061 After both Alyssa and james participate in a murder, James realizes that the sensation of killing an actual human being, was not what he imagined. He concluded that he was not a psychopath and did not want to kill again. As for Alyssa, she slowly begins to realize that what she is doing is wrong and what she truly wants, is to live a normal life with James. Unfortunately, both James and Alyssa are still wanted by the police. ]]> 2018-03-24 01:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/crod124/s7nj1p1di0r5/wish/245685061
