Relationships

BRIEF SUMMARY

Relationships may be romantic in nature or simply between friends or family members.  Different people define relationships in different ways. But in order for a relationship to be healthy, it needs a few key ingredients, including open, honest and safe communication and setting healthy boundaries.

KEY POINTS

• Healthy relationships thrive on respect, kindness, and trust. Unhealthy ones revolve around an imbalance of power that’s maintained through the use of controlling behaviors, emotional abuse, or physical aggression.

SHARED WISDOM

• Roughly 1 in 10 high school students report being physically hurt by a date.
