RISKYBUSINESS.COM

Risky Business is an internet site where you can watch and follow a diverse group of teens who with no adults around are hatching 'risky' capers. The video segments and the discussions that follow will help you 'read' your friends better--- who has your best interest, who will hurt you, who is a good leader. You will be able to identify the different roles teens play with their friends. In every group of teens there is an 'Instigator', the boy or girl who pushes the group for good or for bad. There is a 'Dupe,' the boy or girl who is the follower of the group and gives up his or her own autonomy for the protection of the group. There is the 'Enabler', the informal leader of the group. Finally, every group has a 'Hero' who is on the 'hot seat' and has to make a decision about the risky situation.
