Let’s talk about Domestic Violence….
Attention Teens- What is Dating Violence?
Dating violence is more than an occasional argument or bad mood. Everyone has bad days, and while they
shouldn’t be taking their mood out on other people, it happens. Dating violence is more than that. It's regular
violent behavior, often against a girlfriend or a boyfriend.
Dating violence can be more than just physical abuse (like hitting or shoving). It can also be verbal or emotional abuse. Insults, guilt trips, name calling, jealousy, pressure to be sexually active and isolation from
friends/family could all be considered abuse when they happen regularly.
No relationship should ever include any type of violence or abuse – if it does it is time to get help.
Here are some signs to look for that might mean your friend is in trouble and needs help.*
•When your friend and her boyfriend are together, he calls her names or puts her down in front of others.
•He acts extremely jealous when she talks to other boys, even when it’s completely innocent.
•She apologizes for his behavior and makes excuses for him.
•She frequently cancels plans at the last minute for reasons that are untrue.
•He’s always checking up on her, calling or texting her, and demanding to know where she’s been and who
she’s been with.
•You’ve seen him lose his temper, maybe even break or hit things when he’s mad.
•She seems worried about upsetting him or making him angry.
•She’s giving up on things that used to be important to her, like spending time with friends or doing another
activity.
•Her weight, appearance or grades have changed dramatically. These could be signs of depression, which
could indicate abuse.
•She has injuries she can’t explain (broken bones, bruises, scratches), or the explanations she gives don’t
make sense.
There are a lot of other warning signs, but this gives you a good start of things to look for.
If you or someone you know is experiencing dating violence, it’s important to know the signs and understand the process of supporting someone needing support. Please contact Kellie Cummings through
Central Alberta Women’s Emergency Shelter at 403-346-5643 and together we can ensure you are receiving the support you need.
Go outside. Feel the simple pleasures of the earth, the sun, the breeze. Fresh air
clears the head, boosts the spirit, and can even provide a good dose of vitamin D

MOVIE NIGHTS 7 PM
October 9th
Scooby Doo PG –13 126 mins
The reunited Mystery Inc. team return to their hometown of Coolsville as heroes when a
local criminology museum offers an exhibition of the many ghostly disguises used by
villains they've subdued over the years. However, their warm welcome is not long-lived
when mean-spirited television reporter Heather Jasper-Howe airs a series of stories calling
the team's intelligence and bravery into question, and even worse, a number of the weird
creature costumes on display in the museum are coming to life and wreaking havoc on the
people of Coolsville. Some of the clues seem to point to Old Man Wickles, whose attempts to
pose as the Black Knight Ghost were foiled by the Mystery Machinists in the past, but is he
looking for revenge or just a red herring? And what is Velma supposed to do about Patrick
Wisely, a curator at the museum?
October 23rd
Hotel Transylvania PG 91 mins
Hotel Transylvania is an endearing tale about an overprotective Dracula intent on sheltering
his beloved daughter from the vicious humans who killed her mother. The result is a film
that will tickle parents with a soft spot for creature features while it puts a good-humored
spin on familiar monster lore. Brimming with a sense of energy and ghoulish gags it
succeeds at showing impressionable young viewers a playful side of the silver screen's most
memorable monsters.
