What Do You Really Think About Relationships? Educational Card Game

Stable relationships are the basis of our society; young people thrive in them and adult mental health is, to a very large degree, dependent on them. The What Do You Really Think About Relationships? Educational Card Game aims to encourage full and frank discussion around the whole subject of relationships so that students have a chance to explore their own thoughts and beliefs.

Disregarding Unrealistic Media

Many people form their ideas about relationships from the media, through films, TV, online or even music. Celebrity culture can be seen as a desirable model of living, however it can often lead to a distorted view of what constitutes a real and lasting relationship. This can lead to damaging and unhealthy behaviours and practices.

Why Is Relationship Education Important?

Learning about relationships helps children and young people develop strong and stable couple, family, social and professional relationships that will contribute towards their wellbeing and happiness throughout their lives. Teaching students about choice, control and consent will also equip them in protecting themselves from abuse.

Engaging and Thought-Provoking

With cards posing the question "Is it OK to...", this game encourages young people to carefully think about, express and develop certain issues that face relationships. The cards can be used in a classroom setting, in small groups, or even one-on-one with individuals struggling with or who want to explore relationships.

What Is Included in the Relationships Card Game?

The card game includes the following items:

• 40 x Thought-provoking discussion cards
• 1 x CD-ROM of guidance notes for use
