Answer:

Participle:  Standing

Word Modified: Child

Participles are verb forms which look like verbs + suffix -ing. So having that in mind, the participle in the sentence above is the word standing. 
Participles function either as adverbs (when they modify verbs), or as adjectives (when they modify nouns). In this case, the participle acts as an adjective, modifying the word child.

Should it be peers or peer's or peers' ?
Nataly_w [17]
Peers has two meanings:
1) verb: to look or gaze. For example: He peers at the puppy through the window. (that is, he looks at the puppy through the window)
2) noun: Individuals who are comparable on some given metric. For example: My peers and I met to discuss issues which impacted our lives. 

Peer's refers to something belonging to a single peer (definition two above).
For example: I thought that my peer's sweater looked very nice on him. 

Peers' refers to something belonging to a group of peers (definition two above). For example: As a group, my peers' achievements are very impressive!

So for your sentence on taking advice, I would assume that you would want
to use "peer's", because it refers to the advice which comes from a single peer.
