Be Men!
Carlos E. Asay April 1992 Priesthood Session
A young man of deacon age reported: “I feel a lot of pressure from my friends to smoke and steal and things like that. … My best friends are really pushing me to do it. They call me a pansy and a momma’s boy if I don’t. I really don’t like the idea of smoking but my good friend Steve told me in front of some of my friends, ‘Kevin, you’re an idiot and a chicken wrapped up in one little body’” (in John W. Santrock, Child Development [New York: William C. Brown, 1987], p. 408; italics added).
