Qu'est-ce qu'une relation saine ? (Français)
Cette vidéo détaille les trois principes d’une relation saine : respect, équité et communication. Elle explique ce que signifie une relation respectueuse : chaque personne est appréciée pour ce qu’elle est, et chacune peut s’exprimer ou dire non à quelque chose avec laquelle elle n’est pas d’accord. La vidéo explique également ce que signifie un manque de respect dans une relation, par exemple lorsque quelqu’un fait pression sur vous pour que vous fassiez quelque chose que vous ne voulez pas faire. La vidéo décrit l’équité comme le fait de traiter les deux personnes comme des partenaires égaux et de coopérer et faire des compromis de manière équilibrée, tandis qu’un manque d’équité signifie que quelqu’un essaie de contrôler son partenaire ou sa relation. Une relation fondée sur la communication signifie que les deux personnes peuvent dire ce qu’elles pensent et pensent ce qu’elles disent, discutent ouvertement de leurs désaccords et sont prêtes à s’excuser. Une relation malsaine peut signifier que les désaccords sont accueillis par le silence ou la pression. [AMZ-050-IZA]
Youth
Having friends that you enjoy being around and can trust is super important. It’s great when both friends care about and support each other. But sometimes friendships change or can be complicated or stressful. What can you do if a friendship feels confusing or you’re feeling left out?
Parents
People have many kinds of relationships throughout their lives. When young people enter puberty, it is normal for them to begin experiencing romantic and sexual feelings for other people their age. They may feel like they want to be in a relationship or date someone during this time. There are also some people who do not ever feel romantic or sexual attraction, so we shouldn’t assume that eventually everyone will. Either is normal.
As adults, we can prepare young people for these feelings and experiences by talking with them about healthy relationship qualities as well as signs of unhealthy relationships. This will help them to be prepared if and when they do feel that they are ready to get into a relationship. Some of the most important qualities of a healthy relationship include communication, trust, physical and emotional safety and respect.
Communication is an important part of a healthy relationship. It means being able to tell your partner how you feel, what you need, what you believe and what you want in an open and honest way, without fearing that they may have an unreasonable negative reaction. It also means listening to and understanding your partner’s feelings, needs, beliefs and desires with the same respect you would want from them.
Being able to trust your partner means that you believe what they say and feel that you can rely on them and they will support you. When one partner does not trust the other, it can lead to things like jealousy, lying and lack of emotional safety in a relationship.
By showing respect for your partner, you can build trust and increase communication, which can provide a healthy foundation for a relationship. Everyone deserves respect, and a relationship without respect can become very unhealthy. A healthy relationship includes respecting boundaries.

As a parent, being familiar with the qualities of healthy relationships and talking to your child about them can help your child feel more comfortable approaching you with questions about these topics.
The easiest way to start these conversations is to talk about issues as they come up in everyday life, like while watching a show or movie together.
