“We did our video on abusive dating relationships because we see it the most and have seen multiple relationships and friends being abused. Emotional abuse is so huge in dating couples. Girls emotionally abuse as much as guys and we are very aware of how this can lead to physical and sexual violence. It’s ridiculous and has to stop. Chain of Change is a part of the answer.”
