Dealing with Teen Dating Abuse: Matters of Choice is a dramatic teaching tool for any teen dating abuse prevention program. The video chronicles the story of Megan, a high school freshman and her boyfriend Matthew. As their romance deepens, Matthew monopolizes Megan’s life, isolates her from her friends and activities, controls her clothing choices, criticizes her intelligence and eventually physically abuses her. At the same time, he repeatedly apologizes and proclaims his love. The viewer sees the story from three perspectives: Megan’s, Matthew’s, and also from the point of view of Megan’s best friend, Ana. Every scenario is based on well-researched information received from professionals trained in dealing with dating violence and domestic violence, teens, psychotherapists, survivors of dating violence and their friends and relatives. This video and print package is an excellent resource for starting dialogue about the important issue of teen dating violence.Also available in Spanish.
