This is a fitting time to mention that February is Teen Dating Violence Month. When this attack went down Chris Brown and Rihanna were 19 and 20 respectively. Hard to believe such violence happens young but it DOES and it's hard to deal with at any age much less as a near child. According to Soroptimist International, fifty-seven percent of teens know someone who has been verbally, physically, or sexually abusive in a dating relationship; females ages 16 to 24 are more vulnerable to intimate partner violence than any other age group.
Don't let your loved ones or yourself suffer in silence, no relationship or situation is worth it and you CAN get help from people who care
