A worrying new report from the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) reveals that nearly half of teenage children who have been in a relationship have experienced violent or controlling behaviours from a partner.

Based on a survey of 10,000 children aged 13 to 17 across England and Wales, the report examines how boys and girls experience violence. It found that 27% of teens have been in a relationship over the past year, and of those, 49% experience some form of violent or controlling behaviour.
