Behind the Label - International Friendship Day
Jock. Emo. Prep. Hipster. Nerd. These are all labels comprised of a multitude of stereotypes hurled at us by our peers. But these simple terms don't even touch the depth of a single individual.

Tips.
Bully: Role play. Kids should be able to recognize when someone is trying to bully them into drinking. Tell them that you can always be their excuse to say no.
Safety: When discussing water safety with your kids, remind them to always swim with a buddy and to be aware of their surroundings. When watching children swim, adults should avoid distractions like talking on the phone or texting, inexperienced swimmers should wear a floating device, while staying close to the edges or in the shallow end of the pool.
