When it comes to tough conversations, are you on the offense and your children on the defense? Get on the same team with your 11 to 14-year-olds with this engaging faith-based resource that opens the playing field to tackling tough topics together. Doctrinally-sound and non-preachy, this workbooks uses fictional stories as a vehicle to show the value of faith in difficult times and sensitive situations. Each chapter focuses on one of ten real-life challenges to the Faith: pornography, cyberbullying, modesty, family life, materialism, dishonesty, body image, substance abuse, pressure to overachieve, and depression. With statistics, discussion questions, connections to Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, activities, and prayers, this resource equips families, catechists, and more to engage older children and young teens in honest and mature conversations about tough topics that matter.
