Decison-Making
In many animals, feeling equals acting. They don’t think, they just act.
A dog is hungry so he eats.
A lion is angry so he fights.
A duck is cold, so she fluffs her feathers up.

Decision-Making
However, in human beings “feeling” does not necessarily equal “acting”. People do not always act on their feelings.
You may feel like seriously hurting your little brother or sister, but you don’t.
You may feel like eating a whole chocolate cake, but you stop yourself.
In humans there is a step between feeling and acting.......DECIDING

Active Decisions
Active Decisions
Involves conscious thought and a choice between at least two alternatives.
YOU CHOOSE. YOU MAKE THE DECISION.

Passive Decisions
Passive Decisions
Letting things happen to you.
You have a choice but allow someone else, chance, or habit make the decision for you.

One can actively choose TO become a teenage parent (Group B)
One can passively just let things happen (they let chance take over) (Group C)
These people will usually become teen parents
