Teen Abusive Relationship

Teen abusive relationships include physical, sexual and verbal abuse. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2000) found that one in 11 high school students said they had been hit, slapped, or physically hurt on purpose by their boyfriend or girlfriend in the past year. Similarly, one in 11 students reported that they had been forced to have sexual intercourse. According to 2000 statistics from the Bureau of Justice, far greater numbers of teens (as high as 96 percent) report emotional and psychological abuse in their dating relationships.

You may be in an abusive relationship if your boy/girl friend:

· Acts possessive or jealous

· Slaps, pushes, hits, kicks or threatens you

· Forces you to have sex

· Yells at you

· Makes you feel guilty all the time

· Calls you names or makes you feel stupid

· Forces you to do things you are not comfortable doing

· Uses drugs or alcohol or forces you to use them

· Won’t let you break up with him/her

i am 19. i am not sure if i am in an abusive relationship still or even if i am the abuser. we both hit/bite each other. he wont let me break up with him and i have tried to a few times. he has called me retarded, nuts, psycho. He cheated on me and lied and hid many things from me. He makes me feel guilty about things i do, such as break up with him. And he twists things around to make things my fault. He has many double standards and used to be a pothead. But what if I am unknowingly abuse him??

This is my second marriage. I have 3 young children to my present husband. He started first with alcohol. Now he is addicted to prescription pain medicine. He mixes the two together and life becomes miserable. This is a daily event. He is very mean with the children and me. He is constantly slapping, hitting, and saying mean things to all of us. I am at the point to where I see it is Just going to get worse. It has been evolving for the past seven years. I have found myself becoming men and irritable. I want out and for my children and I to have a happy normal life. I just don't know how to go about getting out without it becoming messy and how to make it money wise once the kids and I are on our own. We have too many assets to get federal assistance. The house is in my name from my previous marriage but I don't have the money to make it once I leave. I do not work. I am a stay home mom and the children are 2,4, and 6. There is no family to help me. I can not put any money back because we barely have enough to pay the bills with his alcohol and cigarette habits. How do I seek financial help before I decide to make a big decision like leaving? This is my delay. Can someone tell me what steps to take?
