Being a Good Friend

Quote From: glassmaker

calling the cops wont help in this situation, only hurt. all you can do is show your friend her options and support her in whatever she chooses. Bad things happen to teach us lessons we cannot avoid it and if we do then we never learn. Let her know shes worth leaving , theres lots of options better than being treated like crap, and this guy wil never change. theres battered womens shelters out there. trust me the police doesnt care that this girl is scared to leave a bad man. maybe she should go on dr. phil, i would love to see the advise he gives a girl in this place. but its true she has to make the decision to leave its all about growing strength. being alone and broke is alot less scary than being with a mean person that doesnt like or respect you. good luck :)
But she is a minor and being abused!!!! And ANYONE who allows this to continue is a partner in crime. Somebody has to step up and do something for this CHILD. It would be different if it were two adults, but this ABUSE involves a child. At least try and be her voice, Giving advice is good, being there for her is good but she is young and I am sure terrified for her life............................
