"I'm not dressed to answer the phone!"
Yea, this is what my mom said when her friend was calling to see if she was coming out to celebrate cinco de mayo. Do you really need to be dressed to answer the phone? If so, I guess I'm always doing it wrong :P
Statistics show that one in three teens are abused physically or emotionally in a relationship, what I want is for everyone to do something, whatever they can!
I am a part of that statistic. I started dating a boy just after I'd turned 17 who I stayed with for two years through all the stress he put me through and all of the abuse (both physical and emotional) he put me through. I haven't beenĀ speaking up about it, but it has got to change. I want to help those who have gone through it, are going through it, or might someday go through it. I want to try to help prevent it. Support me in this, please.

The website also has topics other than abuse for those interested in even more.
