Social Issues

This important series helps young people gain an understanding of values as they increase in complexity beyond their own personal experiences. By learning to appreciate the diversity of cultures and faiths of the people around them, they will discover what it means to be part of a society. Relationships are the connections you have with all of the people in your life. Healthy relationships make you feel valued, respected, and safe. You also have the responsibility to treat others with respect and kindness so they feel the same. Consent is an important part of relationships. Giving and getting consent means you both feel comfortable taking part in something and agree to do it. It is equally important to express what you are not comfortable taking part in. Setting boundaries with consent can help you to feel safe in relationships. Book jacket.
