  3. Why Choose Abstinence?

  4. Because…. Abstinence is healthful and safe Abstinence shows respect for yourself and others Abstinence follows family guidelines Abstinence demonstrates good character

  5. Abstinence is a responsible decision based on self-respect • Self respect is more than just acknowledging your own strengths and other positive qualities. It’s also about setting high standards for yourself, having confidence, and stand for what you believe in. • If you’re a guy, and the girl doesn’t give you respect, don’t chase her. Say, “No! Forget you!” I don’t care how attractive she looks or how popular she is. Set your standards high and respect yourself. • Same for girls: Don’t be stupid. If a guy treats you as if you’re not worthy of his time, don’t degrade yourself. Leave him NOW!
