You have to dig deep within yourself, and understand that it might be few setbacks. The key thing is that you keep striving to the best of your ability, just can’t stop because something out of the ordinary popped up. You have to do what you have to do, to accomplish what ever there is to be accomplished. I’ve experience others older than me struggle through college, once something came up that they didn’t like or couldn’t complete the first time they just gave up. In my future I know that I’m going to go through something’s of that sort, but the difference with me is, I’m going to keep going, and going till I accomplish it.
Troy’s inability to accept change and even his inability to see the change the world is undergoing directly hurts his relationship with not only Cory, but also indirectly impairs his ability to understand his own wife. After Cory learns that Troy will not allow him to play football, he accuses his dad that the reason he won’t let him play football is, “cause you didn’t have a chance! You just scared I’m gonna be better than you, that’s all” (58). Although Troy does not flat out say he is afraid of Cory surpassing him, in all the cases where Troy explains his reasons in not letting Cory play football, he always underlines his resentment towards sports because of the injustice sports had given him in his own life. This clearly expresses that because of his own experience with injustice, Troy is involuntarily jealous of the opportunity Cory is receiving through his scholarship which results in his action of not allowing Cory to participate in sports.
Brock poses the question, if there is a God, why do all of these terrible things still happen? And why do we continue to pray if most of our prayers are never answered? Possibly the most clearly articulated presentation of this idea of the ineffectiveness of praying is in the song, “Bukowski”, where it is stated, “Nine times out of ten, Our hearts just get dissolved”. This suggests that people pray to God expecting something good to happen for them and having such high hopes, but almost never are their prayers answered which leaves them disappointed. In this same song, “Well, see what you want to see, you should see it all”, refers to Christians only seeing the good in God and only credit him when great things happening without acknowledging the bad things, such as disease and natural disaster, as being His fault.
Fixed/Growth Mindsets A situation where I have had a continued fixed mindset is my relationship with my father. I always thought that if I tried harder, was better, walked more the path he chose for me rather than my own that one day he would accept me and love me unconditionally.

Divorce “ Teenagers in Trouble” Stress is basically defined as an applied force to strain a body; a mentally or emotionally upsetting condition occurring in response to adverse external influences and capable of affecting physical health. Teenagers now days have had a lot of stress because of a lot of different reasons. However, the main things in my opinion that cause stress for teenagers are peer pressure and more importantly family problems(for example: divorce). Such stresses put teenagers in problems where they make life decisions that can be very risky. Many books were interesting regarding child stress but particularly “The Romance of Risk” by Dr. proton was very amazing.
For example, some parents have arguments or fights most of the time which cause stress for their children, and sometimes parents don’t give enough time to their children. Some parents even get divorced and live separately from each other, in this situation, teens don’t get the equal time, love and care they should have. Teenagers want to have a sense of belongingness which they don’t receive from their families, so they turn to their friends or even gang members. Another reason that teenagers join gangs is drug addiction. Teens’ minds are not developed enough to see the difference between enjoyment and physical damage, so that they use harmful drugs for fun.
The child’s lack of adequate socialization with peers may contribute to identity confusion. The adolescent being to notice that they are not like their friends. and this alone can cause a great deal of distress.
