This program helps viewers recognize the six key qualities that define good mental health in adolescence - having satisfying relationships, being happy with one's academic achievements, maintaining clear and achievable goals, being capable of delaying immediate gratification, making good choices and resisting unhealthy peer pressure. Having a strong sense of self-esteem is especially highlighted: if you do not feel good about yourself, you are more likely to limit yourself and make bad choices. Each of the hallmarks is clearly demonstrated by real teens in a variety of settings, including at school, at home and at play. The peer-to-peer approach focuses students' attention on the key qualities that they should acquire as they make their way through adolescence.
