My daughter – age 14 – is all about Instagram. It’s her primary source of entertainment: if she’s on her phone, she’s likely looking at memes or laughing at silly posts made by her friends.

In this lesson, students learn about the “sneaky excuses” that can convince us to do things that we know are wrong.
