Peers are children
or teenagers who have
the age or maturity level or less the same which interact with fellow
peers of the same age and have a unique
role in the culture or habit. (John w. Santrock,2002)
Acceleration of development in adolescence associated with sexual maturation
that ultimately lead
to a change in social development. Before entering adolescence usually
a child is capable of running close relationships with their peers. Along with it also
raised the group of children who play together or
make plans together.
Properties that are characteristic of
groups of children before puberty is that
the group was made up of the same sex. Equation of the same sex can facilitate the development of gender identity and
is also associated with feelings of identification credentials to prepare for the experience. While at this stage, the child has
begun to dare to do activities with
the opposite sex in a variety of activities.
During
the first years of adolescence, adolescent children tend to have a broader
membership. In other words, neighbors or friends is often a member of the group.
Usually more hiterogen group than in groups with their peers. For example, the
peer group in adolescence tend to have a mixture of individuals from different groups.
Increasingly intense interaction causes increased cohesive group. In a cohesive
group with a strong will and a climate develops certain norms. But it is dangerous
for her identity formation. Because at this time, he's more concerned with his
role as a member of the group rather than personal pattern. But sometimes the
insistence of the norm group membuatnyua difficult to establish confidence.
Due peers have
an important role in adolescent development, it is
expected the teens are directed to select and have a good friend,
and can help young people establish personal and
private positif.Menurut into my teens also by G. Stanley Hall is
interpreted as a period of
storm and Drang expected
to parents, educators and teens themselves to
understand the things that must
be passed at this stage so that
when adolescents and
can be directed through
adolescence is well
on subsequent days grow healthy personality and soul.
