This series examines a number of issues related to the dynamics of teenage relationships in the online era, and utilizes case files released by police, news archives, and relevant studies, statistics and scholarly articles. Our goal is to highlight common manipulation tactics employed by abusive people, the pitfalls of navigating consent, boundaries and rejection, mental health, nature vs nurture and more.
