This documentary-style program explores how abusers engage in violence with the intent to exert power over their victims, isolating them from friends and family in order to gain complete control. Real teens talk about what they think constitutes abuse and why they may be vulnerable in romantic relationships.

Experts explain how teens often don't tell anyone if they are victims of abuse because they are ashamed, or they don't want their parents stepping in to tell them what to do. Teens are advised how to get help for themselves, and how to help a friend who is being abused. While girls are by far the most frequent targets, the fact that boys also can be victims of dating abuse is discussed.
