    I think it’s amazing what you all are doing. I went through this as a teen with my ex boyfriend. It was awful. I was with him for 31/2 years. I finally got sick of it all and broke up with him. We were engaged I’m so happy I didn’t marry him. I now have a wonderful husband who treats me like a princess. I just want to thank you all for taking time out of your lives and doing something wonderful for teens. Thank you for your time.

    Hi, i think this website is absolutley great. My (Ex) boyfriend is crazy. And even though i broke up with him, he still acts like a physco to me. Like saying things such as he is gonna kill himslef if we dont get back together. Also that he is gonna telll me parents the (sexual) things we did, because he cant be with me, so i love this website, trully i do, and i dope it helps people.

    It is really nice to know that there is someone out there that teen victims of domestic violence can go to for help and advice. It is so hard when you are young to know who you can talk to when you need help. Parents don’t seem to understand what you are going through and even if they do, it seems to make you feel worse when you talk to them about tough situations. I spent my entire high school experience lying to my parents about everything because I knew they wouldn’t understand and would yell at me if I tried to open up to them. When it came time where I did actually need some help and someone to talk to, I was alone. I hope teens out there realize this is an amazing asset that they can use to find confidential help. Good luck!

    I love your new website, especially your logo and the purple background on the home. I’d like to see a blog on how to use Myspace and Facebook safely. Also, I’d like to know more about dating violence in LGBTQ youth. Thanks.
