Reflection Paragraph on Findings

During this process,  I realize that some information uncovered was harder to group than others. By writing the finding paragraphs I found important facts and information on teens in abusive relationship. I learned the signs of abuse, the statics of teenagers being abused, and nationwide organizations. The most important facts that I learned was that thirty-nine percent of teens and women experience emotional abuse.(Child Abuse)  I think that many teen who that read my finding paragraphs will be surprised that the rate is low, but really many teens do not inform anyone about being abuse; this could explain the low rates. While writing my second finding paragraph, I was surprised to find that there are so many organizations locally and nationwide. I found out that there are local organizations such as the SCCADVASA in my community for teens who have been victims of abuse. There are other organizations online that teens and parents can find information on signs of abuse in teen relationships. In all of my finding paragraphs I have found research to answer my essential questions. Another one question, which I still would like to answer, is what a person can do if the abused victim chooses to remain in the abusive relationships. Personnally, I would have a difficult time finding information on how to get a victim out of an abusive relationship; even though they want to stay with their abuser. Before doing this research, I did not think I would get really attached to my topic, but now I feel that my topic can help teens all over the nation, even the world. I feel empowered to reach teens, parents and victims of abuse.
