Designed for both parents and teachers, this title reminds adults that children need opportunities to make decisions that reinforce family values and diminish impulsive behaviors. Host Debbie Nigro introduces and comments on a series of short scenarios portraying various problems children cope with in making decisions, interspersed with additional tips and insights featuring child psychologist Dr. Sybil Barten, founder of the Children's Center at the State University of New York's Purchase College. This practical video is accompanied by a 49-page manual that includes an introduction to the program, reproducible handouts for both children and parents, the script, and an excellent bibliography with recommended readings for parents and subject related fiction titles for grades K-5. Recommended for parents and educators. Aud: K, E, I, C, P. (L. Stevens)
