ALL ABOUT RESPONSIBILITY
Taking responsibility for yourself is an important step in the development of a youngster's sense of independence and self-worth. This program follows a group of friends through ten different scenarios as they discover the many meanings of responsibility: living up to obligations; keeping your word; taking care of property; and owning up for what you do.

Friends and Responsibility: Allison reluctantly agrees to lend Jimmy her brand-new scooter after he assures her that he will be careful with it. She returns to find it damaged. Jimmy blames his brother who left it outside overnight.

Family and Responsibility: Peter can't go to his friend's house to play his new computer game until he completes his chores. He does a haphazard job and must face the consequences when he gets home.

School and Responsibility: Jill and Sam are flattered when they're asked to help tutor the first graders. Then Sam realizes he promised to play on the class kickball team the same time he's supposed to tutor.

Community and Responsibility: Peter and Nick are cleaning up the local park. When they break a window in the nearby library they start to run away. Then they see another group of boys nearby and wonder if these boys will get blamed for the damage.

These and other scenarios challenge kids to explore the meaning of responsibility and the increasing responsibilities they face as they get older. Questions and handouts at the end of each section reinforce the concepts.
