1. Define teen dating violence and include details about the abuse of power in a relationship. (10 points) Teen dating violence is an abusive sign in a relationship. The abuser in the relationship can scare the other person into staying with them. The abuser will use physical and mental violence to control the other person into doing exactly what the abuser wants. The abuser does not care about the other partner but makes he/ she feel like they are in love with them. The abuser tells the other partner exactly what they want to hear so that they are emotionally attached.

2. Select at least two warning signs of abuse. Think about interactions you have seen take place between teens at school, or elsewhere, and explain what you believe could have been warning signs exhibited by one of the teens. (16 points) Two warning signs of abuse are jealousy and controlling the other person. At school there are sometimes movie nights which tend to have teens wanting a date for it, so they get into quick relationships without knowing the other person's intentions. This can lead to an abusive relationship. This could have been a warning sign if the teens were not so eager to get into a relationship by a set date for the school's movie night. The boy could be more controlling by not wanting the girl to have any opposite gender friends and claiming her for himself.
