Warning Signs Of Teen Dating Violence
Parents, ๐ we know romantic relationships between teenagers are incredibly complicated. The undertaking of a relationship, very often, requires more maturity than most teens have developed. These relationships are more likely to be riddled with problems including communication, jealousy, and selflessness.
As a result, teenagers are more likely to be involved in relationships that are unhealthy, violent, and/or abusive. If you are a teenager involved in a romantic relationship it is important to understand the behaviors that may point to an unhealthy and/or abusive relationship.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs of teen dating violence, regardless of how unlikely you think it is that your child would be in an unhealthy relationship:
1๏ธโฃ Excessive jealousy or controlling behavior
2๏ธโฃ Isolation from family members or friends
3๏ธโฃ Humiliation, ridicule, or name-calling
4๏ธโฃ Invasions of privacy
5๏ธโฃ False accusations or gas-lighting
6๏ธโฃ Excessive gift-giving and other grand gestures, also known as love bombing
7๏ธโฃ Excessive anger or rage, often unexpected
8๏ธโฃ Damaging or destroying personal property
9๏ธโฃ Showing up unannounced
1๏ธโฃ0๏ธโฃ Monitoring activities through their social media, cell phone, or stalking
1๏ธโฃ1๏ธโฃ Physical or sexual violence of any kind
One important thing to know is that abusive relationships can happen to anyone, regardless of their age, gender, race, or sexual orientation. It can happen to kids who do well in school just as easily as it can happen to kids who struggle.
