Eat nutritious foods from the various food groups each day atch?v=LzvAYMEuFNE atch?v=w_KVAqHrNFA atch?v=LzvAYMEuFNE atch?v=w_KVAqHrNFA

Do 20 to 30 minutes of nonstop vigorous activity at least three times a week.

Don’t use alcohol or other drugs

Maintain your recommended weight.

Your Turn As teenagers, what are some things you are at risk for? Try to list as many as you can….

6 Major Risk Factors for Teens Unintentional and intentional injuries Tobacco use Alcohol and other drug use Sexual behaviors Unhealthy eating Physical inactivity

Cumulative Risk Doing a harmful behavior repeatedly over time (suntanning, smoking, bad diet, etc.) OR Doing several dangerous things together (For example: Speeding and not wearing a seatbelt)

Your Turn! Draw a timeline on your paper. Start with Zero and mark off 10-year increments, ending with 80. Put a dot on each end. It should look something like this:

Once you have a total, subtract that number from 80 and mark a dot on your timeline showing your answer. 10 years: 8 years: 7 years: 5 years: 3 years: Drinking more than three ounces of alcohol in one week Being overweight or obese Not exercising at least 3 times a week Smoking 2 packs of cigarettes Eat a lot of sugar (cookies, cakes, pastries, candy, soda) Having a lot of stress in your life Overeating (more than 2,500 calories a day) Eating excess fat in your diet Often being depressed or unhappy Often handling firearms Often working with or handling toxic chemicals Driving or riding in a car without a seatbelt Look at the following list of behaviors. Total the years for the behaviors that are true for you.

Journal Questions: Do you believe this is an accurate way to estimate how long you will live? Why or why not? Are there some kinds of risks that are healthy? Explain.

Your turn again! Make a list of all the decisions you can remember making since you got up this morning Write down a decision you made in your life that turned out really well… And one that didn’t.

Major Decisions Now, with one other person, make a list of major decisions you will have to make in life (try to think of everything). Then, join one other group of two and compare lists. Add what you left out.

Major Decisions Career Relationships Children College Car Where to live Drugs School performance Sex House Money Exercise Marriage Eating habits Alcohol

Six Steps to Great Decisions 1.Identify the problem (or situation) 2.List your options 3.Consider the possible consequences (pros and cons) 4.Consider your values 5.Make a decision and act 6.Evaluate the outcome

The critical piece Step #4 is what makes your decisions different from someone else’s. Not everyone has the same values, which is why someone else’s decision is NOT always right for you. If you do not follow your own values on step #4, you will have regret or guilt. Sometimes this can last a lifetime.

Check your Values (Write these down) 1.Who will be affected by this decision? 2.Will I be treating others the way I would want to be treated? 3.Would I want this decision announced on a billboard in my neighborhood? 4.Do little bells in my head warn me that it’s not a good move?

More Values Questions 5.Are there any laws about this decision? 6.If everyone did it, would that be a good thing? 7.Would I do it if my mom was looking over my shoulder? My little brother or sister? 8.Is it an act of good citizenship?

Using the Process: Whether to Have Sex Step 1: Identify the problem (Whether to have sex) Step 2: List the options –Have sex –Don’t have sex Step 3: Consider the consequences

Consider the Consequences: Pros Popularity Seems mature Feels good Connection/ Love Reputation Cons Pregnancy STDs that kill STDs that don’t kill Reputation Can ruin relationship Parental disappointment Religious values Money Regret Friends upset Comparison to others Emotional stress Violation of personal standards Can’t take it back

If You’re Not Comfortable With Any of Your Answers to the Eight Questions, It’s Probably Not a Good Decision. Rule of Thumb: When in Doubt… Don’t! Remember: You’re the One Who Has to Live With You.
