text: Some advisors may be more credible than others. It's good to get the opinions from multiple people, but it's also very important that you take in account the people you are asking. The advice from a friend will most likely not be as dependable as the advice from an adult. An adult will better proccess the information and are more matured than kids. In addition, one of the people that is giving you advice might be bias. This is why it's good to ask multiple people because one person may be giving you advice to somehow benefit them, or benefit something or someone they like. What if your mom said that if you didn't pass a class you would be grounded. You had a final test that determines your grade for the marking period. You didn't study enough for the test and your friends sees you studying during lunch. He asks you why you are studying and you explain to him that if you don't pass the test you will not have a passing grade and you will be grounded. You and your friend were going to have a sleepover that weekend. Your friend says to copy his answers on the test so you can pass. This example shows how credibility is very critical in the person that's giving you advice. The friend is biased and is giving you bad advice in order for you to have a sleepover with him, which he would benefit from. Having a lot of opinions that agrees with you gives you support.
