| Review: |
With lively vignettes dramatizing the information, a narrator explains that some teens engage in dangerous behaviors in their desire to define themselves, make their own choices, and not be boxed in by rules they had no part in making. Lack of communication, or miscommunication with responsible adults often triggers these rebellious actions as teens seek to provoke adults and get their attention. The narrator points out negative behaviors and possible disastrous consequences. All major points are listed onscreen so teachers can stop the video and elaborate on them. In their efforts to outrage adults and defy social conventions, teens may abuse illegal as well as legal drugs. Serious health consequences include damage to major organs and even death. Teens indulging in casual sex also face grave health risks, possible pregnancy, as well as emotional consequences they are unable to cope with. Crime, including violence, is an extreme form of rebellion which may have long-term negative consequences. Teens can show maturity by setting positive goals for education or a career and working to achieve them. Clubs, sports, and creative activities are also touched as ways to follow interest, make friends, and feel a sense of belonging. With its broad content, this program can serve as a reminder of the negative consequences of poor choices and is a good introduction to these problems that can be elaborated upon in the classroom.
