Facing life choices and building self-esteem

 

Gary and Peggy Cuozzo's son Chip inherited the good looks, intelligence and athletic abilities of his parents. But on July 10, 1990, the Cuozzos received a phone call from a Miami homicide detective, telling them that Chip had been shot to death in a drug deal. Despite a strong family background, and his father's fame as a former professional football quarterback, Chip's promising life ended prematurely. Your students will see the devastating power of peer pressure in this heartbreaking story of a teenager battling insecurity. Your students also will discover the lesson of ultimate hope that can overcome human insecurity and poor choices.
