      This website is really good because it defines self- esteem helping us restrict our variables even more. It talks about how you can get a higher self- esteem (setting realistic goals, celebrate achievements are some). There are also some other arcitles about self- esteem on this web page that are really good.

      This webpage is useful for my project because it helps explain the ways in which involving yourself in sports can affect your self-esteem. It gives examples of studies that have been done with their conclusions on the relation between sports and self-esteem.
  • The study does beg one age-old question: Which came first? Do kids think better of themselves because they're involved in sports, or do they get involved in sports because they already have higher self-esteem? "It's difficult to swoop into a one-time study and then determine whether the kids have better self-esteem to begin with," says McHale.

      I think this is a very good question to keep in mind when working on my project because I think there could be some bias in our results if kids are involved in sports because they already have higher self-esteem.

      This web site is very credible because it is from the governement of Alberta. It is about the self esteem of kids/ teens and the directly related to sports. This site is perfect for our project because it talks about negative and positive things coaches and parents do. It shows that there are some very basic things that players ca do that help build self- esteem. Most players already do these things with out realizing it. Like encouraging others, and taking initiative with in the team

    Yes, it's credible but it's more about giving advice to coaches than it is information about your topic. Where are your highlights?

      This page could be really useful because it speaks of the different factors that can CAUSE a child/teenager to be pressured by peers. It explains how the way of upbringing a child is a crucial aspect. The environment is also very important.

      You need to include some highlights of the most important ideas on the page.
  • First of all, a child need not get pressurized by their peers. If they are cool, if they are confident and if they are sure of themselves, they will not break and crack under pressure. This comes only from healthy upbringing. A child starts to think that their friends are better if they were constantly compared to others by their own parents. Also, children with older siblings, who are bullies, can fall under peer pressure.

      This section of the text is very interesting because it says that the upbringing of a child is a crucial aspect. Their parents behaviour is also very important to the way they will respond to peer pressures. Their relationships with their families are very important.
  • A child's low self confidence and low self esteem are the biggest reasons for coming under peer pressure. Another common reason is if the parent is extremely strict, then the child may find the constant urge to do something wrong. However, all roads lead to the parents' way of upbringing. The environment at home has a big impact on children. Though for a teenager their friends have a bigger impact on them than the parents, it is the parents who have set the foundation.

      This section explains the importance of a high self esteem in a child/teenager. Also, it speeks of the role parents play in the development of character in children/teens. There is an aspect of rivalry that teenagers have; the stricter the parent, the more the teen contradicts them.

      This page could be really useful for our project because it talks about the effects peer pressure can have on teenagers. It explains that peer pressure can cause emotional damage and make someone believe that they are not able to make proper independant choices.
  • Peer pressure affects adolescents, teens and some adults. Peer pressure can cause a lack of self-esteem when a person does something that conflicts with personal values. Repeatedly giving in to the group can damage a teen's sense of self and cause emotional damage. It also reduces a teen's belief in her ability to make good choices. Peer pressure can lead to early drug use, smoking, sexual behavior and alcohol abuse. Parents, not peers, have the strongest influence over most teens

      This section is definitly very important because it explains the different effects peer pressure can have on teens. I never thought of it as emotional damage or reducing a teen's belies in their ability to make a good choice, but it definitly makes a lot of sense.

  • the fundamental task of adolescence is 'ego identity' or 'self-definition.'" (1969, p73) This does not suggest that a child entering adolescence has no concept of self, but it becomes the critical need of the teenager.
  • three stages of adolescent development: Early adolescence (ages 12 to 14), Mid-adolescence (ages 15 to 16), and Late adolescence (ages 17 to 21)." (1987, p20)
  • The brain is bombarded with questions about what to do about all of these feelings so new and so demanding

  • young person may reject all or part of the parental value system
  • look around to replace it with one of their own
  • physical traits of the individual
  • Do they consider themselves too short or fat?
  • It would appear from autobiographical material, that the adolescent not only is acutely aware of every physical variation from his concept of what is normal or beautiful or handsome, but that is perhaps his most frequent frustration

      This web page is useful for our project becomes it talks about Teen identity and the steps and variables leading to teen identity.

      Can you imagine that the physical of a teen can have such a great impact on there self esteem that it changes the whole perception of themselves.

      We often forget about spiritual life and the presence of religion in a teen's life. It is also a great and important factor on identity.
