I always wanted a baby but having this class really changed that I don'’t want one right now. I know it is healthier for me, the baby, and the people around me if I wait!Reality Check has warned me of upcoming dangers and temptations. There are many things I might have done in the future had I not heard the lessons here.This class has helped me see the dangers in premarital sex. Also I'’ve learned how to set boundaries for future relationships. Reality Check had helped my future more than I thought it would. I know that I’'m going to have abstinence and save my sex for my marriage.It helped me set my goals of being successful and moving on in school and keep track.It made me see what I want to be. It helped me and my mom get closer. Now I have a better understanding of what sex is and how it affects people.When you talked about peer pressure it helped me realize that I don’'t have to do anything I don’'t want to do. That it’'s my body and my life.TO stop, think then act so you don’'t make a decision that might hurt you or somebody else and you aren'’t filled with regret.To make good choices in life and to save my sex and to not rape a girl.It helped me by making good decisions and you always have the right to say NO! And if you have problems you can talk to a counselor.I learned and I'’m glad we talked about all of this because I know its going to help me in the future for better decisions.I have learned if we choose to do sex what will be the consequences. I was weak on saying no but now I know how to say no and still be friends. Thanks Mr. Baker for everything.It gave me courage and will help me set boundaries and respect.It has inspired me to make boundaries and accomplish them. I learned a lot more of the difficulties sex can bring. I also learned that sex is something I should keep until marriage. I can have a awesome future ahead of me…... I don’'t have to ruin it by making the wrong choice.I learned that to wait to have sex so my life won'’t be hard. Also I learned how to say no and make my own decisions of saying no to sex or anything like it.This class has helped me a lot. My dad he asked me “"Why do you think they’re telling you this?"” because we need to prepare ourselves for what might happen in the future.With Reality Check I think that I could make better decisions on my future. I also learned that I should make awesome decisions for my life.This class impacted me with making the right choice and making goals for myself and never go home with someone of the different gender when no one'’s home.Reality Check has put a big impact on me and I am going to choose the best decision. I will be more mature about my ways and decision making in my future.It helped me to do the right choice to think before I act. To think about the future not the past.Searching for friends is easy, they just have to be respectful, nice, and all those other things. Having sex is not as safe as I thought it was, and now I know that I will always be careful.In Reality Check I learned a lot. The information I have learned I know will have a big impact on my life. I learned about the values I have for my future. I learned about the consequences that I would have to face if I make the wrong decisions. I know this will help me say NO to the things I do not want to do. I am lucky to have had this opportunity to learn all about this important topic.I learned to say no to others during difficult situations and to stick up for my values.Reality Check has impacted me by making me safer and more careful.Every year so far that I’ve taken this class I’ve noticed that it’s had a different impact on me every time. It helps me understand what to expect later in life. And to be prepared for anything and everything.My parents are trying to save me from being hurt at a young age by not dating till I am older. Also that my sex is important and matters.What I have learned is it makes me realize having sex right now might ruin my childhood. It impacted me a lot and making decisions right now before I do anything else. I want to save everything till I’m married to the right guy.It helped me to understand to say no and to know the consequences of having sex. It has also helped me so that I may serve my bride something pure.This reality check class made me feel like I need to reach my future dreams and be self-confident. I appreciate that I learned a lot of goods news about sex. Thank you!It will help because I got the right to say NO when someone asks me something. I commit to be a stronger healthier person because my future matters and I choose not to do it.I learned that Reality Check, Inc. could help me on my future. Because I could do something really stupid. Also it could help me to reach my goals.One thing that impacted me was that if I’m going to have sex, I’ll just tell my girl that “we can’t cause condoms can’t help fight STD’s but it can help protect some for pregnancy so why don’t we wait till we are married cause I don’t want to be sexually active.”It has taught me that I should take better decisions, and save sex for marriage, respect my values, how to say no to sex, drugs, or anything you get pressured to do. Health now taught me to make good future decisions.It impacted me by helping me make good choices and caring more about my health.Boundaries Must be set. By learning this I will set and keep boundaries.I learned more than I would have anywhere else!This class taught me a lot of things that I didn’t know. I didn’t know sex would be something serious that can ruin your life or cause health problems. I’ve learned that its safer to save sex until marriage. I got some goals and dreams like taking a trip to Florida, going to college, have a lot of money, and enjoy life.I’ve decided to keep being abstinent. This has made me realize how much my sex means to me because it is really special and I should keep it that way until I get married It has opened my eyes to see the reality in life.I learned that everything you do leads you to consequences. I know that condoms would not keep me 100% safe. With this class I will take better decisions later in life. I would love to take this class again.Reality Check, Inc. helped me a lot, now I know that having sex in an early age is not okay, and that you could get a lot of diseases like STD’s HPV, HIV, AIDS, pregnancy and more. I want to accomplish my dream, go to college, live a fun life, feel protected…learning how to say NO.What I didn’t know in Reality Check, Inc. was HPV. Now that I learned about everything I need to know I will now set up mu boundaries. I will save my sex until marriage. I will reach my goals and one of them is college to succeed.I’ve learned to be abstinent and walk away when pressured. I will use the “Yes-No-Yes” technique and I will be abstinent.It has helped me be able to say NO because before R.C. I did not know how to be assertive in a situation, but now I know several different ways to say NO.Reality Check, Inc. will impact me in the future by saying no to any situation that will affect my health or reputation.It made me realize that the things I do now can affect my future so I should think before I act.This class impacted me/my ife by letting me know I shouldn’t be alone with a boy. Now I know how to say “No” in a respectful way and I know what to say when I am pressured.
