Www.ThatsNotCool.com provides interactive, web-based tools and resources to prevent teen dating violence by promoting positive friendships and relationships, raising awareness about the signs of abuse, and most importantly, educating teens about “digital gray areas.” It asks teens, “Where Do You Draw Your Digital Line?” to define what is acceptable behavior and what is not. The website is inventive and wonderfully designed with video, teen-friendly graphics, and examples of some of the behaviors to be wary of as described by actual teens in online chat rooms. The content includes some helpful information about what kinds of behavior to watch for and what to do about it if it happens to you.
