This class was valuable because it prepared me for the future and problems people face. I now understand how to set better boundaries, even if it’s just with a friend. I’m not yet sure how I want to grow in relationships.

I learned I’m a people pleaser, and to become more cautious about relationships and how I can see red flags. I need to grow on my emotions. This class teaches to be safe and live a successful life.

I learned that I’m not the only one who is scared to say no.

-6th Grader

It taught us how to say no and to not give into peer pressure. I learned that “no” means “no” and several signs or variations of abuse.

-7th Grader

I learned that “love chemicals” can cloud judgment. This class was valuable, because it teaches youth to be careful, and to be more aware of the ups and downs of relationships, while steering clear of abusive/ negative relationships.

I learned that there’s lots of resources to reach out to if i’m being abused. This class was valuable because it teaches you to be responsible with your actions and to consent to a life-long projects like children. Did I grow in relationships? Yes! I got a few old friends back after a few lessons in the program.

There are a lot a variety of people to meet. There are a lot of emotions. There are fake and real love and you can get swayed by fake love.
