Everybody has a part to play in their family and in their community. It might be a part that helps others and makes a positive contribution to the community, or it might be a part which upsets, damages or breaks down communities. Thats your choice but citizenship is about helping you make the choices that will benefit your community and, most importantly, YOU.
What are the choices? Smoking, trying drugs, starting work, driving, drinking, going to university, committing a crime? They will all affect your future and the contribution you are able to make to society. Sometimes these choices can be very difficult and lots of people will try to advise you and influence you, but good citizenship can help you make the choices that are right for YOU.
Making choices can be fun and is all part of growing up and becoming an adult.but with that comes responsibility. So make sure you make the RIGHT choices.
