Teens and Technology
Increasingly, teens are reporting abuse through popular technologies such as cell phones,
instant messaging, and emails.
One in three teens who have been in a relationship says they've been text messaged 10,
20, or 30 times an hour by a partner finding out where they are, what they're doing, or
who they're with.
17% say their partner has made them afraid not to respond to a cell phone call, email,
IM or text message because of what he/she might do.
One in five teens in a relationship have been asked by cell phone or the internet to
engage in sexual activity when they did not want to.
