Whats something that bugs me?

Something that bugs me is when I loose in anything I do. I hate when I loose because I go back threw my head and think what I did wrong. I can never loose a game without being mad. Another thing that bugs me is Ryan Stockham and his girlfriend because they are always touching each other and he thinks that he has a girlfriend that he can't have friends that are boys. Also he is annoying because he will say stuff that is not even nice to me and I get mad because he thinks it's a joke and the other person does not know it is.

This summer I am going to Florida. I am going with my family and family friends also. We are going to Destin I have been there before. We are going to travel a little bit one night to head to the baseball game down there. Also when we get back from the game we are going to eat at this popular restaurant. We have heard they are very good but I do not know what the name is. I am going to eat everything.

Kid Nation 7

Deviance behavior that doesn't follow society's expectations. Jarred flipped over Divad stuff she had. Greg was being mean to the younger boy.Behavior that does follow society's norms. The expectations the town has is to work hard not just work for the gold star. If the people just work hard for the gold star they don't give it to them they have to work hard without trying to get it.

Stigma an undesirable trait or characteristic that used to negatively label a person.They call people names that are not nice at all. They call people names that they should not say in front of younger kids. The words the people say in the town can hard some of the other people which cause arguments. They will call Taylor a brat a lot of times.

 Social sanctions are rewards or punishments to encourage conformity to norms. The punishment they will give will be somthing the people who are getting punished do not like. The rewards are the gold star or being the upper class is a reward for the team the finishes first. Greg and his friend decided to not work in the show down so that the girls will work more instead of not doing anything. They have a hard time getting to pick who the winner of the gold star is.

Kid Nation 6

Authority position of power. I saw authority by the town council waking up all of the kids. The town council has authority over everyone. They are picking a little bit of people to pick up the trash. They also make them carry it over. They also made a hole 5 feet deep. Then they make Taylor pick up the water.

I saw coercion in this episode by them picking up trash. They were carrying 200 meters from the town. They dug a huge deep hole. They forced Taylor to carry water. She would not do anything at all. The blue in the challenge had to get dirty to get more cans.


Ratinalizim is the way of thinking emphasizing knowledge, reason, and planning. Taylor used this in the beginning by planning on putting pressure on Zach. They also used this by planning and working on moving the trash and barring it. The leader from the green team and the rest of the council planed on punishing Taylor. Lastly they planed on filling the water tank as a town.

Kid Nation 5

A way for an in-group to separate itself  from the out group like slang for clothes. I see it in the episode  by the colors each team wears. The blue doesn't let other players wear blue. No one wears the same color of the same team. The different colors can't go in each others cabin's. Everybody has the same colors no one can wear.

primary group- a close group that emotionally support each other and seek one another out. I picked this word because the yellow group seeks out Zach because he  wanted to run for counsel, but Taylor is friends with most of the girls in yellow district. So its hard for him to run if the girls vote for Taylor. The blue team is a good choice to because they all get along. Yellow all support each other accept a little bit because alot like Zach.

Conflict is an interaction aimed at defeating an opponent and increase dysfunction and working against each other. Taylor never gets up and yells at other people. Also Taylor gets yelled at by Zach because she is a bad leader. Also everybody  was throwing food and drinks at each other. One girl keeps being mean to all  the leaders.Also pushing each other for the position to win the composition.

       All of the kids in the yellow group except for one uses group. Group is to or more people that are in regular contact. The two  Older kids for the blue work together and they are good friends. Also everyone uses group because there all in different color groups, like red, yellow, green, and blue. Coucil is one because they all rule over most of the people.
