Case Study 1: Positive and negative peer influence: Raju used to study all the time,

whether at school or at home. He always scored good marks. He did not have any other

interests or hobbies. When he joined a new school in Class XI, he became friends with

Zaheer and Moti. Both were keen cricketers. Raju started to play cricket with them and

discovered that he was a good spin bowler. His parents are now concerned that he is

spending too much time in the playground which may affect his studies.

Questions to reflect-

1) Do you think Zaheer and Moti are a good influence on Raju?

2) Do you think that Raju’s parents are justified in being concerned about his

new hobby?

3) What role can Raju’s teacher/s play in decreasing his parents’ anxiety?

4) Should Raju continue playing cricket? Why?
