Conformity???

Question

how come so many kids at my school fall to conformity? they loose all moral value and just start acting like every one else.

how come??

Answer 1

Because they are stupid and can't think for themselves, they watch too much TV and don't read or think enough.  They do what they see on TV and act like it, then TV gets influence from society, and act like TV, it a viscous cycle really.  People do what easy and not what's right or what should be done, they are too busy pursuing superficial pleasures.

.

Answer 2

Were in a society today where everyone has to conform to certain 'norms'. If we don't conform then we are seen as different and this is when things like bullying start. Most kids today conform so they fit in and don't have to be the one who everyone jokes about. We need to change the views of our society so we accept people for who they are and not for the image they put across, just so they can be the same as everyone else.

Answer 3

You mean they do not conform to YOUR definition of "moral value" and instead follow the ones they chose.

Answer 4

Herd behavior.

Just ignore the sheeple.

Answer 5

People are mindless sheep that's why. Not many people have the courage to do/say what they really want to. People just learn young. Adults are no different. Get used to it. Just do your own thing and don't worry about them and perhaps you will find some like-minded unique people like yourself, in the vast sea of bland and boring clones. I have totally felt this way before! Good luck to you!

Answer 6

Because the wanna fit in. And to them being like everyone else is.

Thank god you havent. Just be yourself and diffrent.

Answer 7

Because conformity is easy.

However, what may seem like rebellion to one person may just be conformity to another person.

Answer 8

Everyone wants to be like everyone else. so if the popular thing in school is acting like they live in california when its ten degrees out side then they will. Its really dumb how everyone has to act the same as the next person. people just need to learn to be themselves

Answer 9

I believe that our society pushes conformity.

We're not taught to think for ourselves, outside the box.

If we do we are considered trouble-makers, or problem children.

It take a truly brave person to resist conformity.
