Who knew that abuse in teen relationship was so apparent. According to the article, teens everywhere are being abused by their boyfriends all around the country. “We are identifying teen dating abuse and violence more than ever,” said Dr. Elizabeth Miller, an assistant professor of pediatrics at the School of Medicine at the University of California, Davis, who began doing research on abuse in teenage dating relationships nearly a decade ago. The boyfriends of the abused victims always start off as being courteous and caring. Then their behavior started to become more dominant and protecting. After a while, they start to become abusive. Some times things can end in the worse by death. Or other times the girls can escape from their abusive boyfriends.

Aww I'm going to miss psych...
AP Psychology have been fun. I like learning about... well just about everything except the whole brain and neuron part. I thought everything that we learned was interesting. I think my favorite was either the social psychology unit or the abnormal psychology section. My favorite activity was watching those movies or making that brain out of playdoh. Playing with that playdoh reminded me of childhood, so now I play with it quite often. For some odd reason I loved them. They were weird and dramatic but fun at the same time. Even though I learned a lot from the notes, they can't compare to the amount of fun that I had when we watched those movies. I wish that I could say that the diagramming and stuff similar to that should be left out, but that is not going to happen. I don't have any suggestions about what could be added because I like my AP psych experience.
