Integrity is all about being the same person no matter where you are and who you're around.

Talking Points:

  • If you want to have strong character and integrity, then you shouldn’t be one person around adults and another around your friends. You should be the same person no matter what.
  • Don’t be fake. If you can be a nice kid sometimes, be a nice kid all the time! Your character is developed more by doing the right thing even when the adults you respect aren’t watching.
