Conformity is the desire for a person to sync their views, values, and actions with those of
the people around them. Conformity may take the form of direct social pressure or
subtler, implicit control. It can be a dominant force irrespective of its type – capable of
changing how big groups comply, starting or ending disputes, and more. A healthy degree
of adherence will lead both interpersonal and society to improved social cohesion. It
begins in the smallest group in society, the family. Filial piety is an enormous part of
Philippine society. Their view is "the right" of the family because, while it's a matter of
blame, you will always be the one to apologize, since they are the ancestors because you
have failed them in going down with it. Parents or elders want you to comply with them.
For our elderly sisters and cousins, we call them "Kuya" and "Ate", as Filipino's honorary
titles, though they are deemed rude by their first names.
2. For someone who has an underlying desire to impress others, one of the hardest
challenges I have had to live with was being excluded. I was one of the excellent students
of my class when I was at grade school. However, this was the part where I didn’t want to
be at the top. The reason is because my friends back then has somehow excluded me from
their group of friends and didn’t want me to join them. They saw me as a competitor and
a threat for their achievements. They pretended to be doing something when I try to
approach and talk to them. Eventually, I wanted to forget it and talk to my other fellow
students to make friends.
