Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month

February is National Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month. This is an issue that impacts not just teens – but their parents, teachers, and friends as well. Adolescents in abusive relationships often carry these unhealthy patterns into their future relationships and they can end up the victims and perpetrators of adult intimate partner violence. There are certain behaviors that you should look for. Behaviors that should raise a red flag include:
Excessive Jealousy
Explosive Temper
False Accusations
Taunting or Bullying

If you think you or someone you love are in danger or in an unhealthy relationship, you can help. If you are afraid of confronting your partner or fearful of them, there are numerous resources you can contact for help, guidance, or counseling.
