February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, so we’d like to talk about this uncomfortable subject just a little bit today with Trinity from Domestic Violence Prevention, INC. As parents, please be aware that any teen in your life could very well be suffering from dating violence. This teen dating violence is not isolated young ladies; both boys girls can be victims.
