I don't have much of a comment on the bigger topic here, I'm not sure I have anything new to add, but the above sentence was the one that jumped out at me.

Does anyone else find the idea of domestic violence within highschool couples a little shocking ? Maybe I'm just too old, but when I was in highschool, I don't think the idea of this sort of thing ever crossed my mind. I never heard of it from anyone else either.

I wonder if this is a newer thing, and if these young people are learning this behavior from their parents and leaders. If so then the cycle is continuing, and sadly likely getting worse.
