1. These teenagers were pressured to have sex from friends or to become more physical in a
relationship they were in. They felt pressured because they wanted to do it, but they had goals
set from beforehand and wanted to stick to those goals and have commitment.
2. The teenagers kept to their goals and showed that they were ok with being in a relationship, but
they wanted the other person in the relationship to respect that they didn’t want to take risks
because of their long-term goals.
3. They were assertive by sharing how they felt in a respectful way and standing their ground when
asked to do something they were not comfortable with.
4. YES, I do enjoy our outings together.
NO, I do not want to stay out longer when it is dark outside.
YES, I would like to do this again at a time when I feel more comfortable.
5. I would let somebody know that it is ok to want to do something, but in the end you should
think about your long term goals or motivations, and what might happen if you were to take
certain risks, because saying you had sex doesn’t compare with becoming a teen parent or
getting a disease.
