CHRISTIE'S CHOICE: A Proactive Approach to Teen Dating Violence

Meet Christie, a typical 16 year old girl. She used to enjoy hanging out with her friends, watching movies, and listening to music; but lately Christie doesn’t talk as much, and the only person she hangs out with these days is her boyfriend Josh.

Christie’s been fighting with her mom a lot. Christie's best friend Amy has noticed a change in her too. Now Christie is always upset, and Josh is all she ever talks about.

Lately Christie finds herself doing things just to keep Josh happy and to prevent arguments between them. If you ask her, she would tell you ‘It’s just easier this way’.

Are all relationships this complicated? Christie loves her boyfriend Josh, but there are things about him she does not like. She needs some help, but she is unsure who to ask.

Is Christie in an abusive relationship? It's not always clear if you or someone you love is in an abusive relationship. There can be many questions with no easy answers.
