Health Project

Dating violence is basically when one partner hurts the other parter physically or emotionally. Dating violence is important because by being caring, gentle, and respectful, this can prevent dating violence from happening and can save a persons life.
When a person experiences dating violence, they can experience physical, mental and even social pain.
Social - the person will trust no one and he or she experiences dating violence
Physical - includes punching, pulling hair of the female, pushing, and trowing things at a partner.
Mental - is when a person say words to kill the persons self esteem, example would be cursing at ur partner so they can feel small and useless.
In the health active I chose. Dyann becomes concerned when she realizes her friends Raye goes out with a older guy and avoids her. Now Dyann wants to help her friend but shes not sure how, she sees that Raye has a purple eye.
I choose this topic because its a very serious thing and a lot of people get hurt so by choosing this topic, people can learn ways to detect dating violence and also find ways to stop it.
I olan to maintain my health by eating less junk food and doing exercise for at least 45 minutes a day. As for my diet i will try to drink plenty of water and eat more vegetable.
