CHOOSE RESPECT NOTES “If you give respect, you get respect.” Question #1: Why is respect so important in a relationship? MATERIALS: AM I IN A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP? Respect in a relationship means that each person values who the other is and understands — and would never challenge — the other person's boundaries. MATERIALS: HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS In healthy relationships, people respect each other for who they are. This includes respecting and listening to yourself and your feelings so you can set boundaries and feel comfortable. MATERIALS: THE RELATIONSHIP SPECTRUM You value each other as you are. Culture, beliefs, opinions and boundaries are valued. You treat each other in a way that demonstrates the high esteem you hold for one another. MATERIALS: BE A GOOD ROLE MODEL You acknowledge how great the other person is. Mistakes are accepted and learned from. Boundaries are respected. Question #2: How could someone tell if they are in a Healthy Relationship? MATERIALS: HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS & AM I IN A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP? Communication, trust, honesty, fairness/equality, and respect are the key ingredients for healthy relationships. Question #3: What qualities are important in a Healthy Relationship? MATERIALS: GREEN LIGHT SIGNS Talk to each other Have freedom within the relationship Trust each other Have more good times than bad Support each other Have fun together Feel happy around the person Do things together
Share feelings Encourage other friendships CHOOSE RESPECT NOTES MATERIALS: HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS Healthy relationships are fun and make you feel good about yourself. You know that you are in a healthy relationship with someone because you feel good about yourself when you are around that person. Healthy peer relationships involve an equal amount of give and take in the relationship. You should feel safe around the other person and feel that you can trust him/her with your secrets. In a healthy relationship, you like to spend time with the other person, instead of feeling like you're pressured into spending time with them. You know if you have a healthy relationship when… You feel good about yourself when you are with that person. You think that both people work hard to treat the other person well. You feel safe around the other person. You like being with the other person. You feel that you can trust him or her with your secrets. Question #4: What are the signs of an unhealthy relationship? MATERIALS: UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS Unhealthy relationships can make you feel sad, angry, scared, or worried. In unhealthy relationships, there is an unfair balance. You may feel that most of the time you are giving the other person more attention than they give to you. Unhealthy relationships do not include trust and respect, which are very important parts of a family relationship, good friendship, or dating relationship. No one deserves to be in an unhealthy relationship.
