description: Young people need to talk about their problems with caring adults, but getting them to do so is not easy. What teen wants to admit problems with the law, pressure to have sex, or betrayal by friends and family? However, there is a proven technique that provides them a safe and comfortable environment for exploring issues that trouble them. By playing parts in dramatic sketches, they and their peers can explore all sorts of touchy situations. Then, with the guidance of a discussion leader, they can talk about what is bothering them, hear other points of view, and explore safe and appropriate solutions. Tackling Tough Choices is a collection of dozens of photocopiable skits that present compelling problems and dilemmas faced by young people everywhere. Each skit leaves the solution open, to be resolved in group discussion. Provocative questions at the end of each skit help the process.
