Right in the middle of exams right now… Sometimes nothing is as reassuring as the affection and encouragement of a friend.
I came across this is picture in my textbook while studying for the class PSYC 351- Social and Emotional Development. This picture is from the chapter “Peers as Socialization Agents.” Not only is this picture and caption touching, but it’s also extremely relevant to my friends and I right now. Exams are a really stressful time so I would encourage everyone to look out for their friends and peers. If you see a friend or someone you know struggling, don’t underestimate your ability to help them by saying something optimistic, sending a big smile their way or just letting them know you are there for them (even in this busy time of year).
