Relationships
Contributor(s):

(Author) With one
out of eleven high
school students in
the past year
experiencing some
form of physical
abuse ? being hit,
slapped, or
physically hurt on
purpose by a
boyfriend or
girlfriend ? young
adults need to know
where they can turn
for help. Even more
teens (as high as
ninety-six percent)
reported emotional
and psychological
abuse in their
relationships. This
revised and updated
edition for
teenagers who have
questions about
abusive dating
relationships helps
them understand the
causes and
consequences of
their situation,
learn what they can
do about it, find
help from parents
and other adults,
and discover how to
build healthier
relationships. "In
Love and in Danger"
is one of the only
books available on
dating violence and
abusive
relationships that
addresses young
adults directly in a
straightforward and
non-condescending
manner. Included are
facts about dating
violence, tips for
how to tell if your
relationship is
abusive, information
on why dating abuse
happens, and what
you can do if you
are being abused by
(or are abusing)
someone you love.
Packed with
practical advice and
compelling
interviews with
teens, this edition
features updated
information and
statistics, an
expanded resource
section, and a new
afterword by the
author.
