Is is wrong to sneak into the movies if your big brother says it's okay? If "everybody" is cheating on the math test, shouldn't you, too? What if telling the truth gets your best friend in trouble?It's never too early for us to begin talking to our children about values and helping them define and clarify their code of moral conduct. This is a great way for them to build self-confidence in their ability to work through everyday problems! The 25 situations presented here and the thought-provoking questions at the end of each scenario have been developed to help you talk to your child about social and moral issues in a natural and nonthreatening way. What an entertaining way to learn vital life skills!

Psychologist Sandra McLeod Humphrey encourages parents and teachers to talk to children about values and to help them formulate their own personal value systems in the face of peer pressure, even when following their own conscience may mean going it alone. Children can easily identify with the moral dilemmas presented in the stories and the questions at the end of each story encourage productive, in-depth discussions about the moral choices suggested by each story. Kids will enjoy reading through the stories and then deciding what to do.
One of the most valuable gifts we can give our children is the ability to cope in our ever-changing world and make responsible life decisions. Strong character is more important than ever in a society where both rules and role models are ambiguous and transient. Read these stories with your children/students and then talk about the thought questions at the end of each story. These discussions can help your children develop a sense of direction and purpose to their lives which will result in more rewarding and fulfilling experiences not only for them but also for those whose lives they may touch.
