Tackling Tough Choices: Discussion-Starting Skits for Teens (Acting It Out Series)

Rating:
Summary: Great Discussion Starter with Adolescents
Review: I have recently been blessed with the privilege to lead group therapy at a residential home for adolescent girls. Peer pressure is one of the most influential forces in the lives of these girls. I needed a resource that would help me stimulate these young women to think critically about the people whom they allow in their lives.

This book does an amazing job of presenting true-to-life scenarios to be acted out by group participants. Each scenario ends with an unresolved problem, which is proceeded by thought-provoking questions for group discussion. I have witnessed first hand how these vignettes stimulate positive problem-solving.

If you work with adolescents and want to find a resource that truly speaks to the teenage experience, this is the book for you.
