Some people think that the family is the most important influence on young adults. Other people think that friends are the most important influence on young adults. Which view do you agree with?
Adulthood is the period in our lives when our characters and personality are formed. The environment where young adults grow up influences their behaviors. The roles of family, school and friends are important factors that affect young adults in different ways. Considering these factors, I would like to say that the family is the most important influence on young adults rather than others.
The first reason is that the family is environment where young adults grow up. The parents play the most important role in the behavior of young adults. Fathers and mothers are people from whom young adults learn how to speak, how to behave with others. If parents spoke to each other in rude manner and beat each other for every simple thing young adults would think that it is the mean of communication with others. For example, in my family I have never seen my father and mother talk to each other in rough manner and have quarrel. When they have problems which is normal in every family they deal this problem easily and try to understand each other and put themselves in the other’s place.
The second reason is that family can show you or guide you what is wrong or good, if your new friends are good for you, if your decision is good for your future. In my culture the parents have to say their opinions about our decisions. The young adults rely on their parents because of their life experiences and they know that their parents want only the best for them. So, when young adults have friends, who are involved in immoral activities, their parents warn their young adults about the bad result that could come from this friendship. Most of time young adults accept the warning of their parents in our culture.
In summary, I think that the environment where young adults grew up plays important role in their lives. Family can influence the behavior of young adults and their decision about friends.
