is an awesome idea. We present at High Schools all the time and this is a great

we teach in our presentations is listed on the pledge cards." "They

reaction from the kids." "We

treat each other and is a great base for kids just beginning to experience relationships."

out your cards as part of our community service project this month." "I
would like to help the cause because i too, was in that dangerous situation and
i would like to spread the awareness of this terrible violence. I am 16 years
old and i want to make sure that my sisters, my friends and, my family never have
to go through what i went through ever! Thank You." "We
plan on pledging our senior year to this cause." "…Unfortunately,
it is a very real issue but hopefully with things like these that the parents
and kids can hand out, we can make it better." "Great
idea." "We
took our grandchildren to a memorial for a group of
young kids killed because of a jealous ex-boyfriend
and there was a dating pledge card. Powerful!" OVER
