The timing couldn't be better with all the publicity over bullying in high school.........A new public awareness campaign is being launched to warn teens what to watch out for to avoid abuse when dating someone.
Deborah Doherty, Executive-Director of the Public Legal Education and Information Service with the province, tells CHSJ News there are some questions you should be asking yourself which include whether there are constant calls and texting about where you are and with whom, jealous and controlling behaviour together with ridicule at times.
Doherty points to statistics that show one in three teens know of a friend who's in an abusive dating relationship and one in 4 teenaged girls have sex forced on them.
