When do you conform to something? For me, I would conform is when it's either safe, beneficial, practical, or normal to do.

When do you rebel against something? If I were to become a rebel it would have to be something that is unjust or unfair is happening or trending.

When is conforming to an idea of a smart or cool move? It depends on what is currently classified as conformity at the time, usually do it when it doesn't cause any harm or damage to someone or something.

When is rebelling against conformity a smart or cool move? For me, it would be something that shows individualism and self-importance of the mind and person, not being chained down by what society consider "normal"

1.When someone asks me to do something twice and they are serious I will conform and listen. I don't want to make it harder for them and me.

2.Most of the time that Rebel is when I don't feel like doing it and make it easier on myself. I rebel when I am lazy or when I got something else on my mind.

3.When is the time to conform is when it is good for you and them and you think about it and what the outcome will be

4.When rebelling is cool is when you got other things to do or just wanting to chill and have a relaxing day and not have to worry about anything else.

I really conform a lot and don't rebel that often. I conform like everyday, so I can prove to everyone that I'm great to work with and I can get into colleges/universities and professional jobs. I rebel a little when I have something to do or when I want my scores to be higher. Conforming is a smart move to be used everyday; explained on the top. Rebelling is a smart move when no one is looking or not noticing.

1. at work/school. because it's our jobs to follow school rules

2. at home. because you can relieve some of that teen angst that you have picked up

3. doing your work. because it helps us stay on task 24/7, oh a penny, what was I saying again? IDK.

4. staying up past your bedtime B). because you can go on that grind for the coolest stuff known to man in that limited-time event on that game

When do I conform. I'm one of those people who follows laws but alway is running the fence I conform when my peares tell me to unless I think the cause is willing to fight for. Why do we rebel we rebel because we think something is better off the other way and people will fight for what they think is right when is conforming a cool smart move. Well i can stand my ground or i can go to jail what good am i to a cause if im behind bars there for i am going to comply to avoid jail. When is radelling cool and smart im going to take a sample from the movie i would of knocked out everyone of these guard if they didn't let me go to my moms funeral i would of ran just like luke did but i would of got away because that just something you cant miss out on and luke shouldn't of been punished for

You conform when you follow the speed limit and don't speed. You also conform when you are not wearing a hat in school. Wearing shoes at school is also a way of conformity. Another way to conform would be when you are wearing an American flag. You rebel when you don't hand in homework. You rebel when you go over the speed limit, also when you wear a hat or a hood. A good time to conform would be when you are in school. Doing your homework, not wear a hat. Another good time to conform is when you are driving your car, to follow you're the speed limit and stay on your side of the road. The reason why I say this is because you don't want to be pulled over by a cop and get a ticket that costs money. Another good time to conform would be when you are at your job. The reason why is say that a good time to conform would be your job is that you want to keep your job. A good time to rebel would be when someone tells you to do something that is bad. The reason why I say this is because I couldn't really think of any other time that would be good to rebel.

Why do we conform or when we conform is a good question. It is a good question because conformity is obeying or listening and doing it. We do it because it is the right thing to do in different situations. We can conform at school and listen and do what the teacher said. We conform if your boss tells you to do something. Why do we rebel or when we do you rebel is also a good question. A good question just the fact it means not to listen or not to do what you're told. We can rebel at school by telling the teacher no. We can rebel at work by not listening to the boss. Conforming is smart and cool because you can get rewards if so. Rebellion is cool or smart depending on what someone is telling you to do.

You conform when you follow the rules and do as your told. If you conform then could sometimes be a reward or some really good luck coming your way and people will respect you more.
You rebel by not paying attention and not following the rules and doing whatever you want. If you rebel then people won’t like or respect you as much as they should be able to. People won’t do certain things for you and they will treat you like crap because that is how you are treating them or other people.
Conforming is always cool because you do what your told and you get rewards back, for example if you work over the hours you are supposed to then you get some overtime and some free time to just chill.
Rebelling is only cool if your trying to show off and that is usually never cool because sometimes it is dumb and not apprpriate. Rebelling means you don’t get all the awards and free time you want. Rebelign usually means if you mess around and don’t do anything you get more things thrown at you and you have to deal with the stress.

When you conform like at a baseball game you wear a t-shirt that supports the team that you would like to win or just there to support someone in your family that is going through a hard time. But sometimes you will rebel. Rebelling is to say no to not do it or do nothing so in one of the cases a teacher gives you homework to do but you look at him or her and say no I'm not going to do this. And another case you just start breaking things and your parents tell you to stop but you don't that's another one so there a lot of thing that deals with conforming and rebelling you just got to know when it the right time to do it so when do I conform like know I'm wearing a mask a school to make sure that I don't get sick and to make sure I don't get sent home for 2 weeks that will stink but when do I rebel it's when someone wants me to join them and do something dumb so I rebel against them and they don't like it well to bad.

I conform with the law obviously because if I don’t I could get into trouble or when I’m told to do something.

I rebel when something is wrong and others don’t admit that it's wrong or when it's unfair to someone else and try to make it fair.

Conforming is cool/smart when people think it's good and they can take the opportunity to conform with others and make it right.

Rebelling is coo//smart when at home because everyone needs some time to themselves and don’t wanna get stressed out.

1- I conform when I change a bad behavior because that way I can behave in the same way as others.
2- I rebel when I resist obeying some rules or when I'm against something.
3-I don't think conforming is a good thing because there are so many people in this world that do not feel like others, in some way they feel obligated to follow society’s rules.
4-I read an article where it says that being a rebel is not a good thing because the society would never accept you and would critique your behavior and in my opinion, that’s not what matters people would always critique or you would never be accepted on this society for different reasons so do whatever you want and live your life don’t think about what others may say.

I conform every day of my life, although it might not be for 24 consecutive hours, it still takes place every day. I conform by fitting in and trying my hardest not to stand out. Because standing out draws unwanted attention, something I’d rather not deal with, especially in a public setting. Standing apart from the crowd may cause others to change, but it’s a rougher path to go down as there's many more bumps in the road. I’ve always been told I’ve been different for my whole life, but I don’t always believe it’s a good thing. When I was younger I was a lot more “against the grain” and it caused lots of problems. While the payout of changing somebody's life or making a difference could be huge, I guess I’ve grown more to conformity to save myself pain and suffering of unwanted things/problems. While I try hard to follow the path everybody else follows, I was born to go down a road not many would ever take in their lives. This becomes very difficult when trying to live day to day as I’m almost always at war with myself about trying to maintain a steady life with very little issues, or live the life I know I was born to live. This can cause many issues in my life, and mostly leads to many critical points within relationships of people I’m closest to. I believe conforming has made my life easier in many ways, as it saves me from unwanted attention and stress, causing a far less worrisome lifestyle. I believe people should respect authority, although the society we live in is lacking that. Many people seem to believe they’re better than everybody else within life, which is never true. It’s always “what about me?” or “how will that benefit me?” but very rarely “what about us?” Life is a very tough thing, as it seems like no matter what direction you go, it will always have its flaws. Selfishness gets you where you want and asserts dominance, but caring for the wellbeing of others and being more socially away gives you things selfishness could never give you. It’s a lot easier to be selfish in life as people feel better when they get the things they want, which soon becomes to feeling like they’re entitled to everything. I usually always go out of my way to help others or make others feel good, because it makes me feel better as a person. But it causes very little time for yourself, which in turn caused more problems within my life. When I’d become worn down, I would begin to focus more on myself as it’d be the only thing to help me maintain peace within myself. Other people would then see this and become offended as I’d blow them off to make more time for myself, much unlike the normal me. It seems as if every day is a constant battle and it never gets easier. Not only does it tear me apart to decipher “right” from “wrong” in these situations, but it also leaves a sense of feeling like something is always missing. Life always seems to be an endless chase of lust and happiness until the day we parish. But whether we conform or rebel could change our outcome.

I conform in things I believe are necessary to conform in such as school, home, special events. A few examples of these subjects are going to school, doing homework, and hanging out with friends. At home I follow my parents rules for the most part and do as told. During special events I am mature,respectful, and dressed appropriately,for example if I'm going to a wedding i am not likely to show up in joggers and a baggy shirt. I do all of this to keep a good reputation. When do I rebel? I rebel when I want to have fun, whether it is to go to a party, a car meet, or hang out with someone my family does not want me to. Why? Because life is too short to be boring and have a boring life. I wanted to go to a car meet with some friends one night and stayed out till 4 in the morning. This was in the summer and it was awesome, there were burnouts,donuts, and cruisin. When is conforming the cool/smart move? Driving is a time to conform when there's a possibility of a ticket. Conforming is useful when joining a group, example you go to car meets and you are about to actually buy a vehicle, you are not likely to buy a rusted out junker if you want some attention. When is rebellion cool/smart? Rebelling is fun and interesting if you do it right, if you do not do it right then there will be consequences. Rebelling is not bad, I rebel against some peoples influence to be better than they are all the time. Why? Toxic people are bad. I would rather be who i wanna be than be someone who is part of other peoples influence. Like if a person's parents are religious and the kid is told to be in their religion but he/she has different beliefs, this is a good example because people should not try to force their influence on others. Or here’s a more common one bullying because someone else is bullying, this is when your friend starts messing with a kid and you either do nothing and laugh or you antagonize the kid as well. You could have stood up for the kid being bullied(rebelled) but you conformed in a negative way.

I think I only conform to my mom or dad because they are at the top of the house. I only fower the rule in my house because when I do nothing in the house my mom will yell at me. When my mom going yell at me she will take time to yell at me and I feel it will take forever to stop yelling at me. That why I do not like my mom yelling at me. I feel every mom does the same thing to his son.

when do you conform? you conform when you are at work you conform when you do anything in life. When do you rebel? you rebel against what you think is wrong. or you rebel against what you are told what to do. you rebel because what others try to do maybe unlawful or dangerous.

when should we rebel more?
when we think is necessary, when some injustice is being done, when we do not agree with the racial system.

I conform mostly in school and at home because I believe it’s the right thing to do and it’s respectful to conform to school and home rules. I rebel with small rules like staying up too late, being out too long, or not turning in homework on time. Conforming is a smart move in social situations or just out in public in general, because if you rebel you could get in trouble and it wouldn’t be worth it. Rebelling is a smart move when there is something bad or unfair happening that should have an end put to it because if, for example, there’s a specific rule or order that is highly unfair or horrible, rebelling against it may be a good way to get rid of or abolish it.

you should conform when it is absolutely necessary and I conform until the rules or laws get too harsh, I rebel when I believe something is right and just but it does not go inline with the law. conforming is good when you know it's right it doesn't matter if it is cool or not you should always listen to the rules. and rebelling is the cool/smart move when the law is unjust and unfair when the terms are right.

I feel conform when I was at home, school, and work. For this three-place, I need to follow the rules. I feel rebel when someone tries to take over me.
