5/23/09 - Dating Violence: What Every Parent Should Know

Is your child (or someone you know) in a physically and/or emotionally destructive dating relationship? Love isn’t supposed to hurt but abusive dating relationships are at an all time high, and reaching epidemic proportions in teens between the ages of 13-19. In fact, 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 5 boys will have been in a physically abusive relationship by the time they graduate from high school. The implications of these destructive relationships are far-reaching in terms of continued violence in adult relationships, and for society at large. And, unfortunately, today’s teen culture makes these relationships appear normal, when even celebrities, like well-known singer Rihanna, are subject to them. This week, Crime Prevention Specialist Susan Bartelstone interviews abusive dating relationship expert Dr. Jill Murray about how parents can recognize the signs that their teen may be at risk and what to do about it. You might pick up some tips for YOURSELF as well?
