Teen and Dating Violence
A recent study conducted by Teenage Research Unlimited and Liz Claiborne, Inc. shows an alarming numbers of teens have experienced dating violence.
1 in 3 teenagers know someone who has been punched, kicked, slapped, choked or physically hurt by their partner.
80% of teens surveyed in the new study thought that verbal abuse was a "serious issue" for their age group.
Only 33% of teens who had been in or known about an abusive relationship reported it.
The study was conducted across all regions and ethnic groups on American teens, aged 13-18. To read the full report or learn more about the survey visit http://www.loveisnotabuse.com/contact.htm
