Calvin
Hi my name is Calvin. I am 17 years old and I’ve been with Youth Radio since since September 2010. What I like most about BOM is being able to express my opinions on relationships and sometimes give some advice. I think that learning how to help other people be better in relationships will make me better too. Being the boss of me means that I am in control of myself.
Lucia
I am 17 years old and my name is Lucia. The BOM411 campaign that has taken a combination of so many teenagers from different backgrounds to finally create is one of great importance. To me BOM411 is finally an opportunity for youth to rise letting everyone realize that domestic abuse is not the only abuse out there; Teen dating violence is far too common and is not acceptable. The campaign is working on primary prevention—preventing the issue before it begins and it is setting the frame work for teenagers and adults alike to understand what a positive relationship actually is.
Daron
My name is Daron I am 17. I got involved in BOM because being the boss of your self is cool you can't let nobody take over you. You have to be your own person and make your own choices and be a leader, that’s why I am the boss of me.
Elaina
Nice to meet you my name is Elaina. I have been working with BOM since the very beginning. BOM deals with situations that happen in teen relationships everyday.I am a freshman at the University of California Riverside. I am a philosopher; I like to see the beauty in the ugliness of the world. Mistakes are made and they are a part of life. Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can awake and make a new ending. I am a complex individual but I can say once you meet me there will never be a boring moment.
