Are you a friend, parent, relative, or teacher to a teen that wants to know how to support them in their friendships and dating relationships? Here are a few questions you can ask to get started:
I noticed that you and your friend aren’t seeing each other anymore, did something happen between you?
Has there been a time when you have felt disrespected by a significant other, online or offline? How did you respond?
What is it like for you when you notice a friend’s significant other is not treating them well? What do you do?
When do you feel safest, healthiest, and most supported in your close relationships?
