Sound Relationships
Start Strong Boston teens developed a Sound Relationships nutritional labels, for you to become song lyric nutritionists by identifying relationship ingredients that make up a song. Using printed song lyrics as a guide, count the number of healthy relationship themes, such as respect, equality, and trust, which are present in the song. And, like fattening calories, unhealthy relationship themes - possession, disrespect, and manipulation - are also counted. The number of times these themes are mentioned also factor into to the song's total nutritional value. Click here for the Sound Relationships label and add healthy and unhealthy song relationships to the list. Idaho Teens identify healthy relationship song lyrics
