The Responsibility Game is for children with sexual behavior problems. There are two versions: a board game and a floor game.  The children toss the dice, move their game piece (or themselves in the floor model) the number on the dice, pick a card and answer the question. Questions are based on 14 categories including Rules, Safe Thinking, Positive Sexuality, Learning New Skills, Impulse Control and more.  Get a 20% discount through June 30, 2011.  Use the code “Lowenstein” in the ordering instructions to receive a rebate.
