OUR MISSION
American Education Defenders
helps parents strengthen the
character of their preteens or teens
through timeless values, true stories,
practical resources, and meaningful
family conversations.
One true story can open the door
to a meaningful conversation
with your preteen or teen.
HOW IT WORKS
1. WATCH
A short 4–8 minute true story from Gettysburg.
2. THINK
Consider 3 takeaways from the story. Put one in your own words.
3. DISCUSS
Choose only one question out of three. For example: “What would you have done?”
4. KEEP IT VISIBLE
Use the Refrigerator Reminder to keep that week’s value in front of the whole family.
