Pressure propels one to initiate a bad decision in many situations. Regardless of the situation, this hint of pressure sparks the extreme savagery all children possess. Golding, utilizes child clans of a warn-torn as an exemplar. He conveys their life as “dispossessed, without anywhere to live or anything to live on, they roamed the country attacking and killing out of sheer cruelty” (Golding 1). With other extremists alongside them, they do not take in account basic resources, since they would depend on someone else. Alternatively, they sought glee regardless of the savage standards.

Weinberger, for example, suggested that self-restraint is comprised of four subscales of self-control including impulse control, suppression of aggression, consideration of others, and responsibility. A second element that is common in descriptions of internal control is…

Overall Relationships It is suggested that the rivalry of women goes beyond professional and that it stems from a female’s want of a mate and therefore, females view the attractiveness and appearance of another female as a threat, thus invoking feelings of jealousy (Mavin, 2006, p. 354).

In the novel, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, society’s sins are evident throughout the story. Some may argue…
