Potential issues:
Teachers don't do anything about abuse.
People don't know what abuse is. (Might be the same issue.)
People don't know warning signs of abuse.
Issue #1 (Teachers don't do anything about abuse):
We spoke to three teachers, the main issues are:
Teachers don't know what to say/do when they see it.
Too many other things to worry about.
No school policy on harassment.
Teacher concern #3 - No school policy on harassment? Spoke to principal. There IS a school policy on harassment:
Doesn't require teachers to step in.
It's an old policy.
In order to change this policy, you have to attend a school board meeting and get the issue on the agenda.
Issue #2 (People don't know abuse/warning signs):
We conducted a ten-question survey in three gym classes:
Only 40% of students could list warning signs of a potentially dangerous relationship.
About half of students thought abusive situations were dangerous.
Girls tended to know more warning signs than boys.
