Making healthy decisions
• Christy plays goalie on her school’s soccer team. Her coach
asked her to join a traveling soccer team this summer. At first,
Christy was excited at the thought of being on the team. She
loves playing soccer. Being able to play during the summer
would help improve her skills. Traveling around the state
would be fun. There’s a problem, however, Christy has
already made a commitment for the summer. The McGuires,
who live across the street from Christy, are going away for a
month. Christy has promised to feed their cat every day, mow
the lawn weekly, and water the houseplants. The McGuires
have agreed to pay Christy $20 a week for her work. Christy is
looking forward to earning some money. She has been saving
for a new bicycle, and that extra money would give her what
she needs. So now Christy is confused. Should she tour with
the team this summer or honor her commitment to her
neighbors? She decided to use the step-by-step decision
making process to help her evaluate her options and make a
decision. Apply the six steps of this process to Christy’s story.
