A Glimpse into the A Glimpse into the Future…Future…“The severity of teenage dating
violence has risen and the issue has remained largely unrecognized by the domestic violence movement and by law makers. If such abuse continues to be ignored by society, a whole new generations acts of violence will be cultivated and condoned, leading to societal attitudes that facilitate and tolerate all forms of domestic violence”
Suarez, 1994
