• 4 A parent-toddler group meets for a trip to a soft play centre. They choose to go to

MiniWorld. Julie, one of the parents, thinks MiniWorld is overpriced and would rather go to Kids’ Cave. She doesn’t say anything though, as all the other parents seem keen on MiniWorld.

Anthony always used to take his twins to Kids’ Cave. He has since joined the parent- toddler group. Anthony has heard the other parents talk about the play area at Miniworld as being better than the one at Kids’ Cave. He now takes his twins to Miniworld on the days the group does not meet.

Discuss two explanations for conformity. Refer to Julie and Anthony in your answer.[16 marks]
