The UVA Murder: Dating Abuse is a Ticking Bomb



Found a commentary on UVA's Yeardley Love's tragic and brutal murder by her boyfriend. The blog by The New Agenda aims to be "a voice for all women." It calls dating advice a "ticking bomb." Are there ways we can prevent such tragedies in the future?


Almost one in three teens state they have been victims of some sort of dating abuse. The New Agenda urges people to take action after this grief. Check out the link above to read the entire blog entry.
