American Samoa friends found a new way of bringing pre-youths together to discuss moral issues.On Friday nights,the preyouths
come together to watch a movie and have popcorn. The discussions on moral issues are taken from the movie and are expanded
to the youths' experiences and their beliefs. These discussions have been very helpful to these young, growing individuals
whose lives are in a transition from child to youth. The preyouths look forward every week to meet their friends in one's
home to learn more about themselves and others.

key instruments for the success.
