I have an instinct to want to be part of a group of people. I feel safe there. That's why I was in school for so long.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We need to be able to go to school and feel safe and accepted for who we are.
Growing up, I went to many schools, and I had to fit in to many different types of environments with totally different social groups. It helps me out as I move from job to job.
Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great?
In high school, there are so many cliques. You're never safe.
I feel like an outsider, and I always will feel like one. I've always felt that I wasn't a member of any particular group.
The best part about being with a group is that you don't have to do everything alone. You're with your friends.
I just felt being part of my peer group so strongly. I was immersed in teen culture, but not taken in by it.
When I was a kid, I was afraid of large group of conforming people.
I've definitely made sure to surround myself with friends who are going to protect me.
I don't feel safe around a lot of people.
