Trust me my classes are left in no doubt! Most of the schools rebook for that very reason, it's easier for an outisder to talk to them in true grim detail! The leaflets are all useless in my opinions, they become to teenagers a booklet of teasing names as opposed to reading any further!Riding out the receession.........0 -
Already on the way should be with you tomorrow or next day I would think.lil'H wrote:OK Ben had pm'd me so just sent him one back, so hoepfully ahve DVD on way, however he did ask if he could turn it off at half 9 so please don't delete yet if you have recorded just in case! And afraid Al he didn't want any payment in kind so you'll have to find something else to offer for that one!
Thank you so much for everyone who hit record, I hope I didn't create anyone anyhassle or expense as a result. Will be using clips in schools, I work as a visitin schools speaker teaching pupils the reality of being a young parent, in an attempt to reduce teenage pregnancy rates. However it's really difficult to try to get across the realities about damp and the states of council flats etc, adn the programme was really good for showing that. As a young parent myself (I had my son when I was 19) I use my own stories but this will really help, and hopefully create more bookings as it will enhance my talks. (PS I also give talks on contraception and STIs so if anyone needs any help with any strange rashes you know where I am!:rotfl: Nothing like a powerpoint presentation with blown up pictures of crabs to put the young un off for life! Thought I'd explain why I wanted it so much. I really really apprechiate everyones offers so much.:T
