Answer:

Various psychological studies have shown that our behavior is influenced by the society we live in and is also shaped by the people we interact with. A child starts to learn how he/she shall behave by looking at other people of the society such as his parents, neighbors, relatives etc.

If a person opposes the norms of a society or behaves in an way which is not common in the society, then he/she is treated in a criticizing way. Such a person will be bullied by every other person and under crucial circumstances may also be told to leave a society.
