Preferred term

teen dating violence prevention  

Definition

  • Teen dating violence (TDV) is more common than many people might assume because intimate partner violence is usually understood as involving adults; therefore, rarely are young people considered. It is difficult to get a clear picture of the issue because different studies and surveys ask different questions and, thus, often get different answers.
