<p>Quinceaneras, in case you didn't know, are a young Latino Woman's Celebration as she approaches her adulthood, her coming of age celebration. This is a Latino tradition as old as anyone can remember. It initially started as a ceremony celebrating that the young lady was now a woman and now could perform the chores of the rest of the women in the group. One chore was that she was available for marriage and the ability to raise children.</p>
<p>Today, Quinceaneras, are a tradition, and Latino people still celebrate it, but mainly out of tradition. We still have reason to celebrate, but the reasons are different. A young lady at the age of 15 is now faced with many decision, obstacles and situations that she previously never had to deal with. For one, she has entered into High School and is just bombarded with so many different things at once that she is literally shocked. Immediately she has to make decisions about who to hang out with, who leave behind, who she is, etc</p>
<p>Here are 3 reasons why we celebrate the coming of age of a young lady.</p>
<p>1. To support her with the new challenges of Peer Pressure2. That she now feels like a grown up individual who needs her space3. To support her with decisions that will affect the rest of her life</p>
<p>Lets elaborate a little bit more.</p>
<p>A young lady entering High School from Middle School is full of confusions, fear, new experiences, older boys and girls, groups of people, peer pressure, and a bit of excitement. For a young lady, all this is tough to handle and digest in a matter of weeks. Almost instantly she has to establish who she is and who she will hang out with.</p>
<p>First, a quinceanera is a celebration that the parents support the young lady as she enters this new lifestyle that will be full of good and bad influences. Hopefully all the preparation, the natural upbringing of the young lady, will help her overcome that confusion so that she is not susceptible of the negative peer pressure of drugs, sex, and alcohol. Through these years she will need her true friends and family to help her get past those negative influences.</p>
<p>Second, young ladies, during this age, are starting to feel more like individuals. They no longer feel like the little nine year old girl, they are young women, their bodies are changing and they want their space, their privacy. They want to be. They start noticing how the adults in the family act, react and start modeling themselves after them. They want to act and do everything that adults do, even though they might not want to admit it, they especially model themselves after their parents; the first real influence in their lives.</p>
<p>Finally, we celebrate this occasion to help support the young lady with the upcoming decisions she will have to make that are going to be a big part of her life. She has so many decisions to make. In addition to who she will be friends with, she will have to decide the career path she is going to take, who her prince charming is and if he is at her school. In addition to that, she will have to make more personal decisions about sex, love, and the intake of drugs and alcohol. These are decisions that will affect her for the rest of her life. Taking responsibility for all her decisions is the ultimate lesson that she will have to learn. </p>
<p>In summary, there is much to celebrate, but more importantly, a quinceanera is a celebration to show the young lady that her friends and family are behind her and are there to support her as she faces peer pressure, so she can feel like a positively influenced individual, and so that she can be better informed on decisions that are going to affect her for the rest of her life. Whether some like to admit it or not, these are facts of life and the young quinceanera needs her family behind her so that her coming of age celebration is just that, a coming of age celebration.
